Fundamental Overview

Last week, gold prices dipped but found support at a key trendline as they adjusted to rising real yields after the strong US NFP report. Despite high US CPI and PPI figures, the market still expects rate cuts, allowing gold to resume its upward trend.

Overall, gold remains in a bullish trend due to anticipated falling real yields as the Fed eases rates. Pullbacks may occur with changes in rate cut predictions, but the uptrend should continue unless the Fed’s stance alters.
