Global gold prices fall this week
Gold prices worldwide declined this week due to a rising dollar and expectations that the U.S. Federal Reserve will keep interest rates high to combat inflation, which reduces gold’s appeal as a safe haven. The spot price of the metal fell by 0.2% to approximately $4,270 per ounce, while futures contracts increased by 0.2% to $4,304. Meanwhile, the dollar continued to achieve weekly gains, making gold more expensive for investors holding other currencies and putting downward pressure on demand. Additionally, policymakers at the Federal Reserve hinted at the possibility of raising interest rates again to tackle inflation, although such increases tend to diminish gold demand by boosting the attractiveness of interest-bearing assets.
