Gold Surges in Asian Trade on Fed Rate Hike Relief,...

31 thg 8, 2023

Gold prices in early Asian trading have risen due to reduced concerns about another rate hike by the U.S. Federal Reserve. This shift in sentiment is attributed to several factors, including the downward revision of second-quarter U.S. GDP growth and a report from ADP indicating that the largest economy in the world added the fewest jobs in five months during August. ANZ analysts noted in a research report that this seemingly negative news had a positive impact on the market, leading to increased risk appetite across various commodities.

Furthermore, the U.S. dollar, which had initially gained ground, reversed its trajectory, and U.S. Treasury yields experienced a decline. It's worth noting that bond yields and bond prices move inversely, and the drop in yields tends to enhance the attractiveness of gold, a non-interest-bearing asset. Consequently, spot gold is currently trading 0.2% higher at $1,945.37 per ounce.
