The USDX index shows a moderate upward movement, testing the 99.00 level for a potential breakout while holding near local highs from October 14. The US dollar gains support amid optimistic expectations surrounding the upcoming meeting between US President Donald Trump and Chinese President Xi Jinping at the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit, set to take place in South Korea from October 31 to November 1. Analysts are focusing on possible diplomatic solutions to the trade conflict between the two nations, which escalated earlier this month after Beijing revised its export policy on rare earth metals.

The XAU/USD pair is trading above the 4140.00 support level after reaching an interim high of 4380.00. The correction is driven mainly by technical factors and was likely initiated by major market participants seeking to limit bullish momentum, while demand from medium- and long-term investors remains steady. Since the move occurred during the U.S. government shutdown, the lack of official data makes it impossible to identify the participants behind the action.

The USD/JPY pair is developing an upward trend, trading around 153.23 amid weak macroeconomic data from Japan. In September, exports grew from –0.1% to 4.2% year-over-year, falling short of the 4.6% forecast, while imports rose from –5.2% to 3.3%, exceeding the expected 0.6%. However, the trade balance remained negative at –234.6 billion yen versus the expected surplus of 22.0 billion yen, signaling ongoing capital outflows and putting moderate pressure on the yen. On Friday at 01:30 (GMT+2), the nationwide core consumer price index will be published. Preliminary estimates suggest it will rise from 2.7% to 2.9%, reflecting growing inflationary pressure that could push the Bank of Japan toward a more hawkish stance and support the yen.
