Gold prices rose to a nearly two-week high amid increased bets on U.S. interest rate cuts
According to Jinshi Data, gold prices rose to a nearly two-week high on Wednesday after U.S. economic data strengthened expectations for a rate cut by the Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) in December and put pressure on the dollar. Spot gold climbed over 0.7% to $4,160.12 per ounce, the highest level since November 14. "Current expectations are more tilted toward a December rate cut... Dovish comments from Fed officials and strong economic data have reinforced this case, and from a yield perspective, this is supportive for gold," said Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at KCM Trade.
