The metal rallied about 2% on Friday after Fed Chair Powell signaled that the central bank is likely to cut rates at its next meeting. Powell noted that while unemployment remains low, risks to the labor market are increasing and policy remains “restrictive,” suggesting that adjustments may be warranted. Markets are now pricing in an 87% probability of a 25 bps rate cut in September, up from about 75% at some point last week.

China has released draft regulations aimed at curbing unfair pricing practices on internet platforms, following widespread complaints from merchants and consumers. The proposed rules, announced by the National Development and Reform Commission on Saturday, seek to promote transparency and fairness in pricing for goods and services sold online. Platforms and merchants must “agree on and change prices through standardised means such as contracts and orders,” and are required to “adhere to clear pricing regulations, increase the transparency of pricing rules and promptly disclose fee changes to better accept public oversight.” The move responds to allegations that major platforms manipulate prices to boost sales and mislead consumers. The draft is open for public comment for one month.
