Wael Makarem, financial markets strategist lead at Exness, said gold prices paused from their strong surge after hitting a peak close to $2,200 on Friday.
“Gold benefited from continued central bank purchases and US Federal Reserve chairman Jerome Powell’s comments last week as markets continue to expect interest rate cuts later this year. Traders’ attention could turn to the US inflation data release. The forthcoming CPI report will play a crucial role in shaping expectations regarding the Federal Reserve's path toward interest rate cuts. A softer reading could strengthen the case for an earlier rate cut, providing support for gold prices to rise further,” he said.
“At the same time, geopolitical risks and apprehensions surrounding global economic growth could continue to contribute to the upward trajectory of gold prices,” said Makarem.
