Recovery towards $2,044 amidst strong USD, geopolitical tensions. Resistance at $2,055-$2,070, support at $2,000-$1,985. Market eyes US Fed policy and Treasury yields impact. Gold's trend influenced by risk sentiment.
- For the second day in a row, gold prices are trying to rebound higher with gains reaching the $2,044 resistance level, recovering from their strong losses at the end of last week that reached the $2,015 support level.
- Clearly, amid the strength of the US dollar due to the stronger-than-expected US jobs figures and the continued tightening of the US Federal Reserve's policy.
- Moreover, the gold market is still supported by the increasing global geopolitical tensions.
Temporarily, gold market gains paused after the US government sold a record $42 billion in 10-year notes on Wednesday at a lower-than-expected yield, in a sign that investors are confident that the US Federal Reserve will focus on cutting interest rates this year in response to the Fed's policy, which is leading to slowing growth. Furthermore, the notes were awarded at a yield of 4.093%, compared to an initial yield of around 4.105% just before 1:00 p.m. New York time, the deadline for bids. Moreover, the low yield indicates stronger demand than traders had expected. The auction result broke a streak of volatility - or weaker results for the previous four monthly sales - and US Treasury yields as a whole held steady as details were absorbed.
Before the auction, Treasury yields briefly fell to session lows on the latest wave of weakness in U.S. regional bank stocks led by New York Community Bancorp shares, whose loan portfolio has been hurt by rising interest rates. In the meantime, the S&P 500 was trading at record highs, highlighting the crosscurrents in the US economy. Clearly, this was reflected in the Treasury market last week, when strong US employment data for January sparked the biggest two-day sell-off in more than a year.
Another factor affecting the gold market, the price of the US dollar stabilized near the highest level in three months, supported by rising Treasury yields, amid growing expectations that the Federal Reserve is unlikely to cut US interest rates forcefully this year. According to trading, the dollar index, which measures the performance of the US currency against six major competing currencies, reached the resistance level of 104.42, after touching 104.60 on Monday, which is its highest level since November 14. In general, the index has increased by 3% since the beginning of the year 2024 until now, after declining by 2% in 2023.
