Gold prices remained relatively stable in the last trading session. However, the Stochastic RSI indicator suggests a bearish signal for the commodity.

Alibaba's Downward Trend

Alibaba shares fell by 1.2% during the last session, with the Stochastic RSI indicating continued negative momentum for the stock.

Financial Market Insights

The dollar experienced further declines, consolidating after a recent bounce spurred by unexpectedly robust US economic data and Federal Reserve officials' pushback against the market's anticipation of imminent interest rate cuts. Wall Street's major indices, including the S&P 500, reached new heights, buoyed by strong US earnings and investor scrutiny of policymaker remarks for interest rate direction cues. Conversely, European shares edged lower, influenced by a downturn in banking stocks and losses among major energy companies like Equinor and Total Energies following their latest updates, causing the pan-European STOXX 600 index to close 0.3% down.
