LIVE MARKET ALERT Gold futures extended intraday losses, with the metal trading around 4,781.1 per ounce, down 2.38%. The move reflects subdued buying interest as traders reassess recent shifts in global risk appetite and interest rate expectations. With limited macroeconomic cues, speculative positioning appears lighter, contributing to softer short-term sentiment.
Market participants continue to monitor movements in major currencies and bond yields, which have recently outweighed the appeal of non-yielding assets such as gold. While underlying demand remains firm within longer-term investment portfolios, the current session highlights restrained momentum and potential for further technical consolidation.
Key Drivers:
• Stronger bond yields pressuring non-interest-bearing assets
• Muted safe-haven demand as risk sentiment stabilizes
