😉 Gold Price Pullback
Gold prices edged lower today and are heading for their first weekly decline in about a month.
With spot gold hovering around $4,680–$4,700 per ounce as rising oil prices, driven by escalating U.S.– Iran tensions, fuel inflation concerns and push bond yields and the U.S. dollar higher, reducing the appeal of non-yielding assets like gold.
Despite this pullback, physical demand remains firm in key markets like China, while supply tightness has lifted premiums in India.
