Gold Market Overview
Gold prices experienced a positive trend in the first half of the day, reaching a peak of $2,016.38 per ounce against a weakening US dollar in the XAU/USD pairing. However, post the Wall Street opening, the precious metal encountered some volatility, settling at $2,010 as the day unfolded. Modest declines in US indicators followed the robust performance of Asian indices.
While the greenback rebounded partially due to negative sentiment, it also witnessed a lack of interest from short-term sellers. Speculation suggesting that the Federal Reserve had concluded its monetary tightening drove investors towards high-yield assets. This move overlooked intraday market declines and indicated a questionable sustainable recovery for the US dollar.
The macro-economic calendars remain relatively sparse, keeping major pairs stable in anticipation of forthcoming inflation-related updates. Germany and the Eurozone are scheduled to release their respective Harmonized Index of Consumer Prices (HICP) in the coming days. Additionally, the US will disclose the October Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Index next Thursday, a key inflation metric favored by the Federal Reserve.
