Gold prices (XAU/USD) remain steady below recent highs as the European session begins, with investor sentiment supported by China’s latest stimulus efforts. Despite this, geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and speculation of a potential 50 basis point interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve in November are keeping gold prices resilient.
The conflict between Israel and Iranian-backed groups in Yemen and Lebanon has heightened demand for safe-haven assets, while mixed signals from the U.S. Federal Reserve and the Chinese economy are influencing market movements. Gold faces support near $2,625, with potential resistance at $2,670-2,686, and a break above $2,700 could indicate a bullish trend continuation. Traders await comments from Fed Chair Jerome Powell for further guidance.
