Gold Retreats to Weekly Low amid Strong Job Data and Powell's Comments Gold prices fell to a one-week low, influenced by strong U.S. employment figures and comments from Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell, which diminished expectations of early interest rate cuts.

By midday GMT on Monday, spot gold had decreased by 0.6% to $2,025.99 per ounce, marking its lowest point since January 29. Similarly, U.S. gold futures saw a 0.6% drop to $2,042.60 per ounce. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts New Study Exposes 'Greedflation' Impact READ MORE World Gold Council: Central Bank Gold Statistics READ MORE Huge debt costs mean climate spending could make emerging nations insolvent READ MORE Leading Economic Index No Longer Predicts U.S. Recession -Conference Board READ MORE Currency Volatility Is Back as Geopolitics Add to Dollar Bets READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
