1) What's up with gold? More to do with the Indian rupee than with Syria. Gold up two percent today, and while it's easy to cite "Syria" as the cause, look a little deeper. Gold has been rallying since bottoming in late June, when the Indian rupee began getting crushed. Indians are the biggest buyers of gold in the world. A weak rupee makes it more expensive to buy gold.
The rupee got crushed again today, down about three percent against the dollar. India's Lower House of Parliament approved a $20 billion plan to provide cheap grain for the poor. The bill has prompted concerns that it will add to India's fiscal deficit.
2) Home prices rose double digits for a fourth straight month in June, according S&P/Case-Shiller data. Prices have been climbing on the back of the housing recovery. During the previous housing boom, home prices gained double digits for 45 consecutive months from August 2002 to April 2006.
3) Retail accessories stay strong. Watchmaker Movado (MOV) had terrific earnings and is at a historic high after raising 2014 earnings; Tiffany (TIF)also beat and raised its 2014 guidance on strong sales in Asia-Pacific, which were up 20 percent with especially strong sales in Greater China, which includes Hong Kong.
