XAU / USD trend forecast January 9, 2024
Gold prices (XAU/USD) find fresh buying interest after dipping to the $2,655 level earlier in the session. However, the recovery lacks momentum and remains limited below a four-week high during the first half of Thursday’s European session. The US Dollar (USD) maintains its strength near a two-year peak, supported by the Federal Reserve's (Fed) indication that it will decelerate the pace of interest rate reductions in 2025. This ongoing strength in the Greenback restricts gains for the non-yielding precious metal. Nonetheless, several factors provide support for gold and keep the outlook for a continuation of its nearly three-week uptrend intact.
Gold price is sideways, accumulating above 2660 and has an upward trend.
