Gold Soars to Seven-Week High on Weakening Interest Rate Expectations

The price of gold has surged to its highest level in seven weeks, reaching $4,302. This upward movement is attributed to decreasing expectations that the US Federal Reserve will raise interest rates in September, a weaker dollar, and lower bond yields.

The decline in inflation pressure has led to a decrease in market expectations for an interest rate hike from above 80% to around 55%. This change has weakened the US dollar globally. Additionally, the significant drop in US two-year Treasury yields has increased demand for gold as a safe-haven asset.

Gram gold investors have also seen profits, with prices gaining 6% weekly to reach 6,541 liras. Analysts have identified technical levels for where the new price equilibrium might form, monitoring the $4,200 level as a strong support point and the $4,390 level as the first significant resistance.
