LIVE MARKET ALERT Gold prices are trading slightly softer at 4609 per ounce, marking a decline of 0.41% in intraday dealings. The metal’s movement reflects a modest pullback as investors weigh stability in currency markets and steady Treasury yields, which have limited appetite for non-yielding assets like bullion.
Market participants are maintaining a cautious stance amid light trading volumes, with some traders opting for profit-taking after recent consolidation near key technical levels. Broader sentiment remains balanced as gold continues to find support from long-term inflation expectations while facing short-term pressure from firmer dollar strength and subdued risk aversion.
Key Drivers:
• Dollar stability and limited yield fluctuations influencing gold’s short-term demand.
• Intraday profit-taking near resistance levels contributing to mild price easing.
