Gold is in a downtrend, entry sell todayGold prices in the international market increased sharply amid weak US economic data. Specifically, the purchasing managers index (PMI) in the manufacturing sector decreased from 49.2 points to 48.7 points. This has reinforced market expectations that the US Federal Reserve will cut interest rates by the end of 2024.
In response to the above information, financial investors sold off USD, causing the currency to fall to its lowest level in the past 3 weeks. USD Index dropped to 104 points. Gold price today has momentum to go up.
On the other hand, US bond yields fell to 4.4%, meaning the value of bonds went down. Accordingly, investors sell bonds and shift capital to precious metals. Today's world gold price increases by tens of USD/ounce is inevitable.
