Gold Faces a Lackluster January with a Close Eye on the Fed Gold prices are on track to mark their first monthly decline in four, as expectations for early U.S. interest rate cuts wane ahead of the Federal Reserve’s policy decision. Spot gold hovered around $2,037.30 per ounce, reflecting a modest drop of 1.2% for the month, amidst reduced bets for a March rate cut by the Fed. The precious metal’s performance this month contrasts sharply with its record high in December, driven by previous rate cut speculations. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Stocks wobble after Powell warns that rate cuts will likely come later than expected READ MORE Fed’s Favorite Inflation Gauge Up 2.9% from a Year Ago READ MORE All eyes on the Federal Reserve: What to know this week READ MORE IMF's Brighter Global Outlook: U.S. Strength and China's Stimulus Lead the Charge READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
