Gold plummets to near $2,400 as profit-booking kicks in, US Dollar advances Gold prices have fallen to near $2,400, extending a three-day losing streak after hitting all-time highs above $2,480. This decline is attributed to profit-taking, a recovery in the US Dollar, and rising bond yields. Political uncertainty in the US, with speculation about President Biden possibly not running for re-election and an assassination attempt on Donald Trump, has boosted the US Dollar’s appeal. Market expectations for the Federal Reserve to reduce interest rates in September remain strong, influenced by recent inflation data and cooling labor market conditions. The US Dollar Index has rebounded to near 104.30, further pressuring gold prices. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Gold Price Climbs to $2,577.50 as Rate Cut Expectations Grow READ MORE Silver Production Set to Grow 4.1% in 2024 with Operations Resuming READ MORE Crucial Week Ahead: Key Reports to Influence Fed's Rate Policy Decisions READ MORE Gold's Rally Pauses As Market Consolidates READ MORE Fear Index' Doubles Amid Worldwide Stock Market Rout READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
