Gold Moved Higher Early Thursday, But Remained Rangebound on Inflation Worries

Gold traded higher early Thursday but remained rangebound below US$5,000 as high oil and gas prices threaten to boost inflation and interest rates.Gold for May delivery was last seen up $15.60 to US$4,839.20 per ounce.The precious metal has stuck well under its Jan. 29 record high of US$5,354.80 as the U.S-Israel war on Iran keeps the Strait of Hormuz closed, blocking the 20% of daily oil and LNG demand from Persian Gulf nations off the market, sending prices higher and promising to reignite inflation.Further threats from U.S. President Trump to fire Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell if he stays in position after his term ends on May 15 are also again unsettling the market. Powell intends to stay in the position until his replacement, Kevin Warsh, is confirmed by the Senate. Trump said if Powell remains in the post past his term, he will try to fire him."The vibes are in force in many markets, gold included. With an unresolved war and tenuous ceasefire, there are still ample inflation pressures to be concerned about. Additionally, with President Trump again commenting on firing Powell, we think that the general sense of uncertainty is in the early innings of a gold-positive reappearance," Christopher Louney, a gold and natural gas strategist at RBC Capital Markets, wrote.The edged higher early, with the ICE dollar index last seen up 0.12 points to 98.18. Treasury yields edged down, with the U.S. two-year note last seen paying 3.765%, down 0.5 basis points, while the yield on the 10-year note was down 1.1 points to 4.277%.

US March Industrial Production Declines Unexpectedly, February Revised Higher

US industrial production fell by 0.5% in March, compared with expectations for a 0.1% increase in a survey compiled by Bloomberg as of 7:35 am ET, and following an upwardly revised 0.7% increase in February.Manufacturing production decreased by 0.1% after a 0.4% gain in the previous month, with a 3.7% decrease in motor vehicles and parts. Excluding the drop in motor vehicle production, manufacturing production would have been up 0.1% and overall industrial production would have been down 0.3%.Mining production decreased by 1.2% after a 2.1% gain in February.Utilities production declined by 2.3% after a 1.8% rebound in February with declines in the output of both natural gas and electric utilities.Capacity utilization dropped to 75.7% in March from a 76.1% rate in February, compared with expectations for an increase to a rate of 76.3%.The monthly industrial production report from the Federal Reserve measures production growth by manufacturers, utility producers and mining operations. The manufacturing data is broken down between products for use in the longer-term (durable) and shorter-term (non-durable), with vehicle production a key component. Also included is capacity utilization, which shows how much spare capacity producers have available.A stronger-than-expected reading on industrial production is usually bullish for the stock market but may be bearish for the manufacturing, mining or utilities sectors depending on how that portion of the data performed in each month.Overall, bonds prefer slower industrial production growth as a signal of more modest inflation but in times of tight supply, such as during the pandemic, it is possible to have both sluggish output and rising inflation.

Zacatecas Silver Completes Surface Sampling and Mapping Program at Oso Negro Project, Mexico

Zacatecas Silver (ZAC.V) on Thursday said it completed its initial rock-chip sampling program at the Oso Negro project, located in Sonora, Mexico.The company in a statement said the program was completed in March 2026 over the course of five days and samples have been dispatched to ALS for analysis with an expected turn around of four to six weeks.It added 156 rock-chip grab samples were taken from three out-cropping low sulphidation veins with cumulative strike length of over 2 kilometres. Veins are up to 3m wide, multiphase with common veins breccias and pervasive iron oxides after sulphides. It also said that the quartz and vein textures are typical of the uppermost levels of a low sulphidation system, indicating that if present, the boiling and thus precious metal mineralization will be preserved below.Zacatecas said the rock chip sampling has demonstrated a "robust" low sulphidation vein system, characterized by over two strike kilometers of multiphase, brecciated, iron-oxide stained and infilled, upper level veins."This initial mapping and sampling program is the first step in systematically advancing the portfolio, starting with our highest-conviction target," said Zacatecas Silver Chief Executive Eric Vanderleeuw. "As we integrate results, we expect to rapidly define drill targets at Oso Negro while continuing to unlock value across the broader portfolio."Shares of the company closed down 6.3% at $0.075 on Wednesday on the TSX Venture Exchange.

Research Alert: Trv Posts Mixed Q1 Results Amid Improved Loss Costs And Top Line Erosion

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:The Travelers Companies Inc. (TRV) posted Q1 2026 operating EPS of $7.71 versus $1.91 a year ago, significantly topping our $5.42 estimate and the $7.08 consensus view, aided by catastrophe losses falling over 45% to $761M (pretax) from $2.27B. The Q1 combined ratio improved to 88.6% from 102.5%, while $413M in favorable prior-year loss development reflected across-the-board improvement in all segments. We view TRV's $1.5B technology investments and January partnership with Anthropic to expand AI capabilities positively, as the insurance industry typically lags in tech adoption. TRV noted these AI investments are positioned to generate productivity gains and competitive advantages. However, Q1 operating revenue growth was flat versus our 3%-6% forecast, while written premiums fell nearly 2%. We believe the erosion in top-line results removes a catalyst from the shares, as investors focus on production trends to gauge property-casualty market health after several years of strong pricing.

Research Alert: Schw Q1: Margin Expansion Powers Eps Beat, Revenue Slightly Below Estimates

CFRA, an independent research provider, has providedwith the following research alert. Analysts at CFRA have summarized their opinion as follows:The Charles Schwab Corporation (SCHW) posted a Q1 earnings beat of $1.43 vs. $1.39 consensus and $1.04 in the prior year, with quarterly net revenues of $6.48B (+16%) reaching a company record. Revenue growth was broad-based, with net interest revenue +16%, asset management and administration fees +15%, and trading revenue +20%. We think these results demonstrate the strength of SCHW's diversified business model amid market uncertainty. Asset gathering was strong, with 1.3M new brokerage accounts and $140B of core net new assets in Q1. Client engagement reached record levels, with daily average trading volume hitting 9.9M trades (+34%), while total client assets stood at $11.77T (+19% Y/Y). Net interest margin expanded to 2.88% from 2.53% in the prior year due to higher yields and improved funding. The firm's strong capital position enabled $2.4B in share repurchases and a 19% dividend increase to $0.32 per share. We believe SCHW's diversified model and deepening client relationships support continued growth.
