Gold prices continue to fall amid a strengthening dollar and expectations of continued high global interest rates.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Reuters reports<\/a> this.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Analysts explain that the gold market is currently under pressure from several factors – from rising real interest rates to rising US Treasury yields.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to Marex analyst Edward Meir, the key influence on the price of gold is the rise in real interest rates in many countries around the world.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

“We are seeing real interest rates rising in many countries around the world, and this is actually mainly affecting gold. The dollar has also strengthened, which is a negative factor,” he noted.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Market fears that inflation could accelerate again due to high oil prices and tensions in the Middle East could cause central banks to maintain tight monetary policy for longer.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, rising 10-year U.S. Treasury yields, which are near a 10-year high, are also putting pressure on gold, as investors are more likely to choose higher-yielding assets over the precious metal, which does not generate interest income.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said that short-term macroeconomic events have created a more challenging backdrop for gold, although long-term interest in the metal remains.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

According to Reuters, the spot price of gold fell 1.5% today to $4,498.43 an ounce. At the beginning of trading, quotes fell to the lowest level since March 30.<\/p>\n
