According to the China CITIC Construction Investment Research Report, the US Treasury's large-scale issuance of bonds will continue to reduce net liquidity. This round of interest rate hikes will lead to a downward trend in the US credit cycle, which will drag down US stocks and expect the valuation of the Dow to continue to decline. In the short term, the escalation of the Palestinian-Israeli conflict in the Middle East has led to an increase in demand for safe haven gold. In the medium term, it is expected that the US unemployment rate will enter an upward channel, the Federal Reserve's interest rate hike will come to an end, and gold will enter a reverse upward trend, with a target price of $2000- $2200 at the end of the year. The escalation of the Israeli-Palestinian conflict is similar to the 1973 oil crisis, and it is expected that the fundamentals of the crude oil market will still be in short supply in the next six months. WTI oil prices may show a fluctuating upward trend, with a target price of $100 at the end of the year.
