PANews reported on June 6th that, according to Jinshi, the stronger-than-expected US non-farm payroll data for May ignited market concerns about a potential Fed rate hike this year. On Friday, previously crowded and highly valued AI and technology stocks suffered a sharp decline, while gold and silver prices also plummeted. Ryan Detrick, chief market strategist at Carson Group, noted, "The technology and semiconductor sectors have experienced a record rally over the past nine weeks, and today the market dam finally broke. The stronger-than-expected jobs report has put the Fed in a dilemma regarding whether to cut rates for the remainder of the year, and the market is expressing its dissatisfaction by selling off its best-performing stocks this year." Phil Streible, chief market strategist at Blue Line Futures, pointed out that some investors reduced their gold holdings to offset losses in other assets, exacerbating the selling pressure on precious metals. Bart Melek, global head of commodities strategy at TD Securities, stated, "The non-farm payroll data significantly exceeded market expectations. Given the ongoing Middle East wars, high energy prices, and significant inflationary pressures, the Fed has virtually no intention of cutting rates. In this context, the cost of holding gold is becoming increasingly high."
