Gold cut earlier losses to touch almost $3200 per ounce on Thursday, as investors seem to be turning again to safe haven assets on weak US data and setback on the pace negotiations between Ukraine and Russia. US retail sales barely grew in April, as consumers cut back on spending for cars, sporting goods, and other imported items amid concerns over rising prices due to tariffs. At the same time, the PPI prices unexpectedly fell driven by a 1.6% slump in margins received by wholesalers and retailers indicating that companies may be absorbing some of the impact from increased tariffs. Meanwhile, the Ukrainian president said the low rank of diplomats Moscow sent to Istanbul for peace talks signals a lack of serious intent, while Trump asserted that no progress on Ukraine will occur until he meets with Putin.

Gold Cuts Losses

US capacity utilization edged down to 77.7% in April 2025 from 77.8% in March, falling short of market expectations of 77.8%. The rate stood 1.9 percentage points below its long-run average (1972–2024). In the manufacturing sector, capacity utilization fell by 0.4 percentage points to 76.8%, 1.4 points below its historical average. The mining sector saw a 0.3-point decline to 90.2%, though it remained 3.7 points above its long-run norm. Meanwhile, the operating rate for utilities rose sharply by 2.1 points to 71.3%, yet it continued to lag well behind its long-term average.

US Capacity Utilization Slightly Below Forecasts

Frankfurt's DAX pared some early losses to trade marginally higher at 23,550 on Thursday afternoon, as shares of defence companies advanced as the prospect of peace talks to end Russia's war in Ukraine appeared to fade. Rheinmetall led the way, rising 4.2%. Meanwhile, renewed uncertainty over US-China trade relations and a series of underwhelming corporate earnings weighed on sentiment.

DAX Sees Some Stabilization

US manufacturing output fell 0.4% in April 2025, worse than market expectations of a 0.2% decrease. It was the biggest decline in manufacturing production since October 2024. The production of durable goods fell 0.2%; most notably, within durables, the production of motor vehicles and parts declined 1.9% while the production of fabricated metal products increased 1%. The production of nondurable goods fell 0.6%, with most major categories posting declines. The index for publishing and logging dropped 2%. Capacity utilization for manufacturing dropped 0.4 percentage point in April to 76.8%, a rate that is 1.4 percentage points below its long-run (1972–2024) average.
