The yellow metal fell over one per cent on Friday due to strong US jobs clouding the outlook for the US Federal Reserve's move to cut interest rates.
Joseph Dahrieh, managing principal at Tickmill, said gold could come under pressure as Fed members reiterated a cautious monetary policy stance.“Though markets continue to price in rate cuts later this year, the lack of urgency from policymakers could limit further upside for the bullion,” he said.
Linh Tran, a market analyst at xs, said the Russia-Ukraine conflict has entered a new phase.
“Ukraine recently launched a large-scale drone offensive against strategic Russian airbases under the operation named 'Operation Spiderweb'. With over 100 unmanned aerial vehicles launched from inside Russian territory targeting strategic bombers, the campaign inflicted significant damage and notably raised the risk of broader, uncontrolled escalation. Heightened geopolitical tensions between major powers have historically been a powerful driver of safe-haven demand, and gold is typically the first asset to benefit,” said Tran.
