Precious metal prices today continue to be suppressed due to the rising USD. Currently, the DXY index has returned to 105 points, pushing gold prices under downward pressure. Investors continue to monitor US inflation data, expected to be announced on September 13, and the Fed's monetary policy decision on September 20.
Although investors have focused on hoarding USD and buying treasury bonds, investment gold buying activities in recent times have not decreased at all. That shows that gold is not less attractive than other investment channels. Gold may even be a strong channel to attract investors if the US economy falls into recession.
