Gold Prices Fluctuate After US Federal Reserve Raises Interest Rates Amid Inflation Concerns
Following the US Federal Reserve's 25 basis point interest rate hike to 3.75-4.00%, gold prices initially rose due to bargain buying and easing oil prices but later declined as the stronger dollar and expectations of further hikes pressured bullion. Treasury yields spiked then cooled, influencing gold's volatility. Lower crude oil prices eased inflation concerns, supporting a rebound in gold and silver. Market analysts note that while near-term headwinds persist, factors like fiscal deficits and potential future easing may support gold over time.
