It's the monthly jobs numbers today and they're not going to be pretty and will be possibly the tip of the iceberg as we head into May.

Good morning. While most assets have largely moved higher since the start of the year, they're still well off the market's all-time highs set in early 2022. One exception is gold. The metal last hit all-time highs in U.S. dollars in mid-2020, amid fears that all the money printing during the pandemic would lead to inflation. While that proved true, gold lost some of its luster. Today, it's moving higher again, and has already hit all-time highs in other currencies. One reason may be robust central bank demand. The first quarter of 2023 saw central banks buy 228 tons of gold, a 176 percent increase compared to last year. As part of a move away from the dollar, gold may see further moves higher in the months ahead. That may make now an opportune time to go long on gold mining stocks, which tend to move higher than the metal on the way up. But beware – if gold drops, mining stocks tend to perform worse than the metal itself.

Today's TOP TIPS Slow and Steady Companies Can Deliver Great Long-Term Results While traders are often looking for a quick trade, many so-called investors are often looking for a stock that can move higher quickly.

It's this mark to market of the securities on all their books. So I don't think that this news cycle isn't necessarily over. … I also don't think it dies of natural causes in the sense [that] it heats up and then just kind of cools down with no effect. - Liz Young, head of investment strategy at SoFi, on last week's market selloff on banking fears, which reversed on Friday as banking stocks soared higher… and why this trend may occur again in the coming weeks.
