U.S. economic data and market volatility

Entities: Gold · EUR/USD · Euro (EUR) · China · Glassnode

Overview

Financial markets remain volatile due to weak U.S. macroeconomic data and shifting monetary policy expectations. July non-farm payrolls unexpectedly decreased by 23,000, missing the anticipated increase of 83,000 to 85,000. Additionally, ADP private sector employment showed a weak rise of only 44,000. These indicators have diminished expectations for interest rate hikes in September, as the cooling labor market reduces pressure on the Federal Reserve.

In response, the U.S. Dollar Index declined to 99.5 and 10-year bond yields fell to 4.65%. Precious metals have seen significant rallies; gold rose by 7.4% to settle near $4,341 per ounce, posting its strongest weekly performance since January, while silver surged 10.2%. Gold is currently stabilizing in a trading range between $4,336 and $4,350 per ounce.

Bitcoin has also experienced notable movement, trading within a compressed range and closing the week above $65,000 after recovering from lows near $62,235. On-chain indicators suggest the asset may be in a late-stage bear market phase, with 45 price metrics signaling a period of capitulation similar to the post-FTX collapse. Technical analysis shows Bitcoin is testing critical pivot zones with resistance near $66,300–$66,400.

While the U.S. dollar has trended downward globally, the USD/TL exchange rate in Turkey has hit new records. Meanwhile, Eurozone manufacturing PMI reached 51.9, its fastest increase in 4.5 years.
