Gold Prices Drop Sharply After Peaking – Will Recovery Return?
Hello everyone,
Today, November 1, 2024, the global gold price has unexpectedly reversed sharply from an all-time high and is currently trading around 2,745 USD/ounce.
The main reason for this decline is the release of U.S. economic data indicating signs of stability and recovery. This diminishes the appeal of gold as a safe-haven asset, while U.S. government bond yields rise and the U.S. dollar continues to strengthen.
In the short term, gold prices may remain under pressure if U.S. economic data continues to improve, especially if employment and inflation reports show a positive outlook. However, other risk factors such as geopolitical conflicts or global financial instability could support gold prices. If signs emerge that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will slow the pace of monetary tightening, this could provide momentum for gold prices to rise again.
