The U.S. government shutdown has begun amid political deadlock, driving safe-haven demand and pushing gold to record highs while denting the U.S. dollar for a fourth consecutive day. Despite shutdown risks, U.S. equity markets remain resilient, with the S&P 500 hitting new highs as traders price in a short-lived disruption and anticipate further Fed rate cuts. Geopolitical tensions and defense spending surges support risk assets in select sectors, but data flow disruptions pose challenges for macroeconomic policy guidance.
Key News Summary: The U.S. government shutdown weakens the dollar amid risk-off sentiment; gold’s safe-haven appeal rises, while EUR/USD and JPY/USD show modest strength.
