Gold prices fell on Friday, yet the metal is still heading for its first monthly advance in five months as investors keep watching developments in the Middle East, according to a report cited by ChainCatcher from Jinshi. A StoneX financial analyst said weaker U.S. GDP data weighed on the dollar and helped precious metals rebound. Even so, the move looked less convincing because U.S. Treasury yields did not show a clear decline.
The report also said the Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged at its July meeting. Fed Chair Wosh offered little clear guidance on the central bank’s next policy step, leaving the broader rate path without a firm signal. The market backdrop in the report centered on gold, the dollar, Treasury yields, and geopolitical developments, with no further details disclosed.
