Risk-On Returns, Gold Nervous
Gold is trading flat at around $3,980/oz, near a four-week low. ADP data showing the addition of 42,000 jobs and the ISM Services PMI hitting an eight-month high have led the market to lower bets on a Fed rate cut, in line with Powell's hawkish tone and inflation remaining above target.
At the same time, global risk appetite is improving, reducing interest in gold as a safe haven. In the short term, prices are likely to remain consolidative while awaiting new signals from Fed officials' comments and subsequent data releases.
At the time of this analysis, the gold price is around $3,984.
- Buy if the price is around $3,991.
- Sell if the price is around $3,977.
Resistance 2: $4,005.
Resistance 1: $3,998.
Support 1: $3,970.
Support 2: $3,963.
