Note
Investors reduced their expectations that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) would drop interest rates, which led to a decline in gold prices. This was because recent reports indicated that price pressure was higher than anticipated. This week's data revealed that US consumer prices increased more than anticipated in February, while producer prices again demonstrated the ongoing nature of inflation.When the US Federal Reserve (Fed) meets on March 19–20 of next week, precious metals will continue be under pressure to take profits. The likelihood that the Fed won't be able to drop operating interest rates this year given the continuing and challenging nature of inflation is considerable. Demand for spending and consumption is still high in the interim. As a result, the USD will gain support and gold will continue to decline.
Note
The US economy released more good data in February than it did in January, which put pressure on global gold prices last week. In particular, compared to last month and the prediction, retail sales, industrial output, and initial jobless claims were all higher.Trade active
