Global Market Movers: Gold price lacks firm intraday direction amid mixed fundamental cues
- Investors are closely watching key US economic data to gain insight into when the Federal Reserve might start reducing rates, which has led to relatively stable price action in the Gold market over the past two days.
- The upcoming Advance US GDP report is anticipated to show a 2.5% annualized growth rate for the first quarter, down from the previous 3.4%, providing further clarity on the economic landscape.
- Focus will then shift to the core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Price Index, a key determinant of short-term XAU/USD movement, set to be released on Friday.
- Recent reports of rising Durable Goods Orders in the US and positive consumer inflation figures, coupled with hawkish comments from Fed officials, have bolstered expectations of no rate cuts until at least September, impacting gold prices.
- Improving global risk sentiment stemming from reduced concerns about geopolitical tensions in the Middle East has also resulted in a subdued demand for safe-haven assets like gold.
- A somewhat defensive stance from US Dollar bulls ahead of crucial economic data releases has provided some support to XAU/USD and prevented significant downward pressure.
