Fundamental Report :Gold prices lingered near a one-week low, marking a downward trend across five consecutive sessions. This decline comes as the U.S. dollar achieves its highest since mid-March, buoyed by strong U.S. services sector data from August. The U.S. dollar’s strengthening comes on the back of the services sector data, suggesting persistent inflationary pressures. With the Federal Reserve taking a cautious stance, Boston Fed President Susan Collins emphasized a measured approach to future monetary policy adjustments. She recognizes the evident progress in moderating inflation, further highlighted by a Federal Reserve report showing modest economic growth and cooling inflationary pressures during July and August. China, a major gold consumer, is undergoing a pivotal economic shift. As the country transitions from an infrastructure and investment focus to a consumption-centric economy, challenges arise. Recent data underscored this, revealing an 8.8% YoY drop in China’s August exports and a 7.3% contraction in imports. Moreover, China’s service activity, despite stimulus efforts, recorded its slowest expansion in eight months. Gold’s investment appeal wanes during periods of rising U.S. interest rates due to the increased opportunity costs of holding the non-yielding asset. This sentiment was evident as the SPDR Gold Trust, the world’s premier gold-backed exchange-traded fund, reported a 0.36% decline in its holdings. The broader investment community, while expecting the Fed to maintain current rates at its upcoming meeting, is still factoring in a 42% likelihood of a rate increase before 2024.
