According to Jinshi News, driven by strong U.S. employment data, the market generally expects the Federal Reserve to raise interest rates this year, which has put pressure on the gold market and led to gold completely reversing its gains for the year.

During the U.S. trading session, spot gold fell about 3.5%, breaking below $4320 per ounce, failing to maintain its upward trend this year. At the same time, both bond yields and the U.S. dollar exchange rate rose. Currently, the strong performance of the labor market leaves room for Federal Reserve officials to raise interest rates, although tensions in the Middle East have pushed up energy prices. Rising interest rates are generally unfavorable for non-yielding precious metals.
