Gold prices fell 2.5% this week, trading just above $4,000 an ounce, pressured by geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and rising oil prices which stoke inflation fears. Despite a slowdown in US inflation growth easing some concerns, analysts warn that higher bond yields, a stronger dollar, and potential Fed rate hikes could push gold lower. Support at $4,000 is key; a break below may lead to further declines toward $3,950-$3,900. However, long-term demand driven by central bank purchases and geopolitical risks keeps gold's bullish outlook intact. Markets await upcoming US inflation data and the European Central Bank's policy decision for clearer direction.
