Rephrased Text: Gold (XAU) and Silver (XAG) have seen a decrease in value following a period of consolidation at resistance levels, amid expectations of interest rate cuts in November and December. Despite a recent surge in the US dollar, the precious metals have not experienced significant declines, likely due to safe-haven demand driven by geopolitical tensions between Iran and Israel. The upcoming release of inflation data is anticipated to impact the future trajectory of these metals, with geopolitical uncertainty expected to play a key role in the short term. On the other hand, USD/JPY has rebounded from daily support levels around $140, supported by the strength of the US dollar. However, the pair is approaching resistance levels and awaits further direction. Geopolitical tensions in the Middle East are likely to boost safe-haven demand for the Japanese yen, potentially limiting upward movement. Additionally, diminishing prospects of a Bank of Japan interest rate hike in 2024 are curbing significant buying interest in the currency. Technical analysis highlights that gold is finding support within an upward trend, while silver is displaying a bullish trend within rising channels on both daily and 4-hour charts. USD/JPY’s trend remains bearish on the daily chart, but short-term upward movement is observed within an upward channel on the 4-hour chart, with a potential correction indicated in the near future.
