Smart investment, Strong finance

GOLDEN INFORMATION:
During the Asian session on Monday, the price of gold faced difficulties in gaining momentum. Currently, the XAU/USD pair is trading just below the $1,960 mark, representing a 0.11% decrease for the day. Market participants are eagerly waiting for the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting and the press conference by Fed Chairman Jerome Powell. These upcoming events have the potential to significantly impact the price of gold, which is denominated in USD.

On Wednesday, the Federal Reserve (Fed) will announce the outcome of its monetary policy meeting. Market participants anticipate a 25 basis points (bps) increase in interest rates by the Fed. According to the CME FedWatch Tool, the likelihood of another rate hike by the Fed after the July meeting has risen to 28% from 15.9% last month. This increased probability, along with the possibility of further tightening of policies by the Fed and the European Central Bank (ECB), could act as a limiting factor for the upward movement of gold, which does not yield any interest.
