He emphasized that significant progress has been made in recent talks, particularly during the consultations held in Cairo with the Palestinian delegation, which focused on the proposal put forward by U.S. Special Envoy for the Middle East, Steve Witkoff. Abdelatti underlined the need for international pressure on Israel to approve the plan. The minister also discussed Egypt's preparations to host an international conference on early recovery and reconstruction in Gaza once a ceasefire agreement is reached, signaling Egypt's continued commitment to supporting Palestinians both politically and on the ground.

Gold Steadies as Markets Await Fed Chair's Speech at Jackson Hole
Waleed Farouk Global gold prices witnessed relative stability on Tuesday, supported by a weaker U.S. dollar and declining Treasury yields, as investors awaited Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell's speech at the Jackson Hole symposium, alongside monitoring geopolitical developments related to the Russia–Ukraine crisis. In the local market, gold prices rose by about 10 Egyptian pounds compared to Monday's close, with 21-carat gold reaching 4,540 pounds per gram. Meanwhile, the ounce gained $7 to trade at $3,340. The 24-carat gram stood at 5,189 pounds, 18-carat at 3,891 pounds, and 14-carat at 3,027 pounds, while the gold pound coin was priced at 36,320 pounds. This mild rebound followed Monday's decline of around 10 pounds domestically, when gold opened at 4,540 pounds and closed at 4,530 pounds, while the ounce slipped from $3,336 to $3,333. Dollar and Treasury Pressure The modest uptick in gold coincided with a 0.1% decline in the U.S. Dollar Index, which boosted the yellow metal's appeal to non-U.S. investors. U.S. Treasury yields also showed relative stability, with the 10-year yield standing at 4.324% and the 2-year yield easing to 3.761%. This reduced the opportunity cost of holding gold, a non-yielding asset. Focus on Jackson Hole Market attention is now fixed on the Federal Reserve's July meeting minutes and Powell's much-anticipated speech at the Jackson Hole symposium scheduled for August 21–23. This event is seen as particularly significant, as it is expected to provide fresh signals on future monetary policy, especially regarding inflation and the labor market, directly shaping September's interest rate expectations. The CME FedWatch tool indicates an 83% probability of a 25-basis-point rate cut next month. Geopolitical Risks On the political front, the White House summit between U.S. President Donald Trump, Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelensky, and key European leaders added another layer of anticipation. Although the talks showed some diplomatic progress, the absence of a concrete ceasefire agreement left uncertainty elevated, supporting gold's role as a safe-haven asset. Trump also mentioned preliminary talks with Russian President Vladimir Putin over a potential trilateral summit, reaffirming Washington's commitment to working with European partners on long-term security guarantees for Ukraine. Bank and Institutional Outlooks Major financial institutions have raised their gold forecasts. UBS adjusted its targets, projecting the ounce to reach $3,600 by March 2026 and $3,700 by mid-2026, driven by stronger demand from central banks and investment funds. Goldman Sachs maintained its bullish outlook, forecasting $3,700 by the end of 2025 and $4,000 by mid-2026. These projections are underpinned by continued dollar weakness, mounting macroeconomic risks, and the growing role of central banks in boosting gold demand. U.S. Economic Indicators Recent U.S. economic data presented a mixed picture: while retail sales were strong, reflecting resilient consumer spending, confidence indicators weakened, with long-term inflation expectations on the rise. This suggests growing caution among American households. Consequently, markets have scaled back expectations for aggressive monetary easing, though a September rate cut remains the most likely scenario. According to a Reuters poll on August 15, 67 out of 110 economists expect a quarter-point rate cut next month, while 42 predict no change, and only one foresees a half-point cut. Markets now await tomorrow's release of the Fed minutes, followed by Powell's Friday speech at Jackson Hole. Any hints of monetary easing will act as a direct catalyst for gold's rise, while the yellow metal continues to benefit from global geopolitical uncertainty, maintaining its position as a strategic investment asset in turbulent times. read more CBE: Deposits in Local Currency Hit EGP 5.25 Trillion Morocco Plans to Spend $1 Billion to Mitigate Drought Effect Gov't Approves Final Version of State Ownership Policy Document Egypt's Economy Expected to Grow 5% by the end of 2022/23- Minister Qatar Agrees to Supply Germany with LNG for 15 Years Business Oil Prices Descend amid Anticipation of Additional US Strategic Petroleum Reserves Business Suez Canal Records $704 Million, Historically Highest Monthly Revenue Business Egypt's Stock Exchange Earns EGP 4.9 Billion on Tuesday Business Wheat delivery season commences on April 15 Videos & Features Story behind Trending Jessica Radcliffe Death Video News Israeli-Linked Hadassah Clinic in Moscow Treats Wounded Iranian IRGC Fighters Arts & Culture "Jurassic World Rebirth" Gets Streaming Date News China Launches Largest Ever Aircraft Carrier News Ayat Khaddoura's Final Video Captures Bombardment of Beit Lahia Business Egyptian Pound Undervalued by 30%, Says Goldman Sachs Videos & Features Tragedy Overshadows MC Alger Championship Celebration: One Fan Dead, 11 Injured After Stadium Fall Arts & Culture South Korean Actress Kang Seo-ha Dies at 31 after Cancer Battle Lifestyle Get to Know 2025 Eid Al Adha Prayer Times in Egypt News The Jessica Radcliffe Orca Attack? 100% Fake and AI-Generated
