The dollar has followed a similar path, with the U.S. Dollar Index reaching 108.541. A firm dollar reduces gold’s appeal by increasing its cost in other currencies. Should the NFP report point to a softening labor market, yields may decline, easing some of the pressure on gold. Conversely, stronger job growth could drive yields higher, reinforcing the current bearish sentiment on gold. This relationship…
More than 100,000 people have been laid off in the technology industry alone this year, and — either by circumstance or choice — at least some of them are not heading back into exclusively full-time work. LinkedIn launched a freelancer marketplace in 2021 to capture some of that activity. Now, at a time when other freelancer marketplaces are struggling, the Microsoft-owned company is giving its first major update on how that’s been going. Some 10 million people have created pages on LinkedIn’s Services Marketplace to date, it says, up 48% in the last year. Service requests — not actual commercial…

AS I WRITE this essay, I have one foot in 2025 and the other in 1959. That’s the year British-Canadian novelist Arthur Hailey published his novel The Final Diagnosis, a staggering saga about medical decisions and hospital drama in Burlington, Pennsylvania.
