最新情報:米国債利回りの上昇を受け、金価格は小幅上昇、レンジ相場は続く

By

-- (価格更新) 金価格は金曜午後中盤に小幅上昇したが、ドルと米国債利回りの上昇、トレーダーの債券への資金流入、そしてイラン戦争による原油価格の上昇とインフレの加速、さらに金利上昇の懸念といった要因が重なる中、レンジ相場にとどまった。 6月限の金先物価格は、直近で1オンスあたり12.80ドル高の4,642.40ドルとなった。 イラン戦争の膠着状態が続く中、金価格は過去1ヶ月間、狭いレンジで推移している。こうした状況下で、木曜日に発表された米国のデータによると、連邦準備制度理事会(FRB)が重視するインフレ指標は、3月に年率換算で3.5%上昇し、2月の2.8%から加速した。 FRBの政策委員会は、2日間の政策会合を終えた水曜日に利上げを見送ったものの、タカ派的な見通しを示した。物価上昇に対抗するため利上げが行われる可能性が高く、無利子資産である金価格の上昇を抑制するだろうとの見方だ。 サクソバンクは、「金価格は、インフレと利上げ懸念に端を発した原油価格主導の終盤の小幅な変動にもかかわらず、4月末時点でほぼ横ばいだった」と指摘した。 ドルは上昇し、ICEドル指数は0.07ポイント高の98.13となった。米国債利回りも上昇し、2年債利回りは1.5ベーシスポイント高の3.888%、10年債利回りは0.5ベーシスポイント高の4.38%となった。

Scotiabank Sees Bank of Canada Rate Hikes, Flags Inflation Risks And CAD Impact

Scotiabank said it is doubling down on its forecast for the Bank of Canada to begin tightening monetary policy over the second half of the year, citing rising inflation risks and stronger economic drivers.From 2.25% at present, the bank said it thinks the policy rate will rise to 3% by year-end.Scotiabank Economics has forecast hikes by the end of 2026 since last November. One more was added in March in response to supply chain and commodity shocks related to the war with Iran."The BoC just opened the door wider to a rate change." It said "... if the economy evolves broadly in line with the base case, changes in the policy rate can be expected to be small." But in which direction?" the bank said in its latest foreign exchange outlook."A rate cut scenario that hinged upon higher US tariffs against Canada was presented. It lacks credibility in our view. One reason is that it would prompt excessive easing of financial conditions. With markets priced for 50-75bps of hikes this year, a 25bp cut would strike that out, add the cut, probably price 1-2 more, and result in short-term market rates plunging by 100bps or more," said Derek Holt, Head of Capital Markets Economics.The effect would tank the Canadian dollar, driving more import price pressures, said Holt adding that the bank remains "cautiously optimistic" toward trade negotiations."A hike scenario was also presented by the BoC and conditioned on higher-for-longer energy prices. Yet it's not just energy prices as evidenced by the BoC's own measure. Canada is importing higher incomes through higher prices for many of the products it sells with trickle down effects into domestic incomes and more resulting spending. Smaller deficits driving increased federal spending represent one such example equal to 1/2% of NGDP this year and 1/4% next year; the BoC's communications did not have time to incorporate this added fiscal stimulus that further merits higher rates. Inflation risk has pivoted higher," noted Holt.

Roblox Growth to Moderate Near Term Due to Age-Check Rollout, UBS Says

Roblox's (RBLX) growth will likely decelerate in the near term amid engagement headwinds tied to a mandatory age-check rollout, UBS Securities said in a Friday client note.The video game platform reported a first-quarter loss late Thursday as bookings fell short of consensus estimates. The company implemented an age-check feature for accessing chat, a move that slowed new user acquisition and hampered growth, Roblox said in a shareholder letter.In addition, management tempered growth expectations for full-year revenue and bookings."We became the first large online gaming platform to introduce age checks to access chat on a global basis," Chief Executive David Baszucki told analysts during an earnings call late Thursday.The stock plunged 18% ahead of market close on Friday, and is down 44% so far this year."We still see Roblox as a beneficiary of secular trends in gaming and expect platform enhancements to support its ability to drive user growth/spend over time," UBS analysts including Christopher Schoell wrote in the note. "That said, we remain neutral given expectations for moderating near-term growth and engagement headwinds from age verification/regulatory shifts."UBS slashed its price target for Roblox shares to $49 from $74.For the second quarter, Roblox guided to 8% to 12% bookings growth, well below Wall Street's 29% estimate, according to the brokerage."We believe platform enhancements/content breadth will support Roblox's ability to drive user growth long-term, particularly in overseas markets where headroom remains," Schoell said. "That said, we see a transition period in the coming quarters with 49% of global users still remaining unverified, (versus) 55% last (quarter)."Price: $45.51, Change: $-9.75, Percent Change: -17.64%
