LIVE MARKET ALERT Gold prices edged lower during the intraday session, with the metal trading near 4,913.9 per ounce, marking a decline of around 1.66%. The pullback reflects a softening in safe-haven demand as investors show a preference for risk-oriented assets. In thin trading conditions, profit-taking and technical positions exert additional downward pressure on bullion values.
Market participants observe that the recent move represents a short-term consolidation within a broader range, as the metal continues to react to shifting interest rate expectations and currency fluctuations. Traders are closely watching momentum indicators and near-term support zones for potential signs of stabilization or further extension of the downside trend.
Key Drivers:
• Reduced safe-haven demand amid improved risk sentiment in broader financial markets.
• Technical selling following a break of near-term support levels as traders reassess their exposure.
