LIVE MARKET ALERT Gold futures traded slightly lower in intraday dealings, with the metal hovering around 4,588.7 per ounce, down 0.54%. The movement reflects light profit-taking amid a cautious tone across commodities markets, as participants balance exposure against shifting macroeconomic expectations.
Following recent bouts of volatility, traders appear to be consolidating positions while monitoring global currency moves and yield dynamics. The modest decline suggests a tactical adjustment rather than a structural shift, keeping gold within its broader consolidative pattern for the session.
Key Drivers:
• Mild profit-taking after recent gains, prompting short-term consolidation across the metals complex.
• Neutral to firm U.S. dollar and steady Treasury yields weighing modestly on intraday sentiment for non-yielding assets such as gold.
