Key Factors Influencing Gold Prices
One of the FXstreet reports stated that spot Gold prices remained steady near USD 2,610 per ounce on Tuesday, despite the continued rise of the US Dollar Index which has kept gold prices under pressure.
Meanwhile The Federal Reserve has indicated a shift toward fewer interest rate cuts in 2025. This hawkish stance diminishes gold's appeal as a hedge against low-interest environments, contributing to its recent stability rather than a significant rally.
US Treasury yields rose and added to gold's challenges further weighing on its prices.
Market participants are now turning their attention to key economic data like the Initial Jobless Claims and Nonfarm Payrolls for December which is expected in the first week of January which will provide critical insights into the labor market potentially putting further pressure on gold prices.
