Analyst: US Government Shutdown and Geopolitical Tensions Drive Gold Price Back Above $4100
BlockBeats News, October 23rd: In the late Asian session, spot gold rebounded and returned to above $4100. The continued U.S. government shutdown and geopolitical tensions have boosted the gold price, while market expectations of further Fed rate cuts have supported the price.
Traders will closely monitor changes in the trade situation. Previously, due to easing trade tensions and a resurgence in U.S. dollar demand, gold experienced intense selling. Russell Shor, Senior Market Analyst at Tradu.com, stated that this sell-off appears to be mainly a technical adjustment. Since September, the gold price has been in overbought territory, prompting investors to take profits. Despite the pullback, gold prices have risen by around 55% year-to-date, and the long-term major uptrend remains intact.
One of the reasons for the gold sell-off was profit-taking ahead of Friday's CPI data release. With the U.S. government shutdown halting the release of economic data, the attention is on the U.S. September CPI inflation data scheduled for Friday. If the data exceeds expectations, it may temporarily boost the dollar and put pressure on the gold price. (Fx678)
