Gold price dropped almost back to $1,900 on Thursday following the publication of a noticeably stronger-than-expected rise in private-sector employment in June in the US. Economists at Commerzbank analyze XAU/USD outlook.
The still robust US labour market could necessitate more pronounced rate hikes by the US Federal Reserve. Yields on two-year US Treasuries reached 5.11% on Thursday, their highest level since June 2007, making Gold less attractive as a non-interest-bearing investment.
There is a risk that the Gold price will dip briefly below the $1,900 mark if US labour market data prove robust once again when published at 12:30 GMT.
