XAUUSD: US to have permanently higher rates than elsewhere

The rise in inflation when a fall was expected is a setback, not a “reacceleration of inflation” as some headlines put it. We continue to expect mostly falling inflation but not to the Fed target of 2%, which will take years, not months. That implies the US having permanently higher rates than elsewhere, even if inflation in the eurozone is higher (8.2% expected this week) because the ECB is more cautious and its terminal rate lower than the Fed’s. Historically, that implies a stronger dollar for a far longer time to come, possibly the whole year.
