24 thg 5

Spot gold prices continued to decline on Thursday, with the lowest trading level at 2,327.28 USD. The precious metal fell sharply for the second straight week, with the USD initially taking advantage of the hawkish FOMC meeting minutes. Documents released on Wednesday showed officials expressed concern about the lack of progress in achieving the 2% inflation target, but remained confident that inflation would fall. However, a rate cut seems unlikely before September. The announcement weighed on the stock market, pushing Wall Street to close lower.
