Gold Prices Dip as Middle East Conflict Cools, Market Eyes Upcoming U.S. Economic Indicators Gold prices fell more than 2% to approximately $2,345 per ounce, reversing a five-week upward trend—the longest in over a year—as tensions in the Middle East began to subside. The decrease in geopolitical risk followed Iran’s understated reaction to recent Israeli strikes, indicating a lower likelihood of immediate retaliation. This shift has reduced the market’s risk premium, particularly as bullish sentiment on oil also receded on Monday, further reflecting easing tensions in the region. These developments come as traders eagerly anticipate upcoming U.S. economic data, which is expected to provide clearer insights into future monetary policy directions. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Concerns Arise Over CPI Data Accuracy with Response Rates Lagging READ MORE Gold Finds Support at 50-Day EMA, Eyes Gradual Rebound READ MORE Turkish Investors Turn to Gold as Safe Haven READ MORE Central Banks' Gold Reserves Grow for Ninth Month Despite Slowdown READ MORE The Silver Denarius and the Fall of Rome READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
