LIVE MARKET ALERT Gold futures were slightly weaker in intraday trade, with the metal quoted around 4800.3 per ounce, down 0.53%. The market showed limited momentum as participants assessed broader risk sentiment and currency fluctuations against a backdrop of subdued trading volumes. Technical indicators suggested hesitation near recent resistance levels, with short-term buyers appearing cautious.
Despite the mild decline, gold retained a firm underlying structure due to ongoing interest in safe-haven assets. Intraday flows continued to be influenced by adjustments in the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields, while industrial demand and speculative appetite remained steady within range-bound conditions.
Key Drivers:
• Adjustments in the U.S. dollar and bond yields influencing investor appetite for non-yielding assets.
• Market participants awaiting further clarity on inflation and interest rate trajectories, contributing to intraday caution.
