Investors are looking ahead to data on the ISM services sector index and initial jobless claims, both of which are scheduled for release along with US NFP data on Friday.

Data released on Wednesday showed NFP figures rose more than expected in September, suggesting the labor market remains strong.

According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the probability of the Fed cutting interest rates by 50 basis points has decreased. The market is now pricing in a 37% chance of that happening, down from 49% last week.

Gold tends to gain in a climate of low interest rates and political uncertainty.
