LIVE MARKET ALERT Gold prices retreated to around $4,350.69 per ounce, marking a 1.53% intraday decline as traders engaged in profit-taking following an extended rally. The precious metal experienced moderate selling pressure, reflecting a subdued appetite for risk hedges amid a tightening in liquidity conditions across commodity markets.
Analysts note that gold remains well-supported by underlying demand from central banks and long-term investors seeking portfolio diversification. However, short-term momentum has softened as market participants reassess valuation levels and closely monitor movements in currency and bond markets for directional cues.
Key Drivers:
• Intraday profit-taking and reevaluation of earlier gains have introduced mild downside pressure.
• Adjustments in currency and bond yields are influencing investor positioning and short-term sentiment toward precious metals.
