Kitco News' latest weekly gold survey shows Wall Street analysts are bearish in the near-term, while retail investor sentiment is mostly in balance.
Rising US bond yields, hitting new 15-year highs on Thursday, remain a significant headwind for gold, according to analysts. They note that gold's rising opportunity cost is also preventing the precious metal from attracting safe-haven inflows as a slowing Chinese economy spooks investors.
Analysts noted that the precious metal still faces some difficulties as economic data does not provide solid evidence that the Fed may be more lenient on monetary policy. Many experts expect, the gold market will "take off" early next year when the Fed may cut interest rates.
