Gold prices experienced volatility last week, dropping to a low near $4,023 after hotter-than-expected US inflation data and rising expectations of Federal Reserve rate hikes. Early safe-haven demand from Middle East conflicts initially supported gold above $4,300, but easing geopolitical fears and strong inflation readings pressured prices downward. The market awaits key central bank meetings, including the Fed's first under new chair Kevin Warsh, which will influence gold's near-term direction. Analysts remain divided, with some expecting gold to recover if a US-Iran peace deal materializes and oil prices stabilize, while others foresee further declines before a potential longer-term rally.
