Gold prices dip despite weak U.S. manufacturing data and Fed rate hike expectations.

Gold prices fell slightly even as the New York Federal Reserve reported a sharp drop in its Empire State Manufacturing Survey to 7.6, well below expectations. The weak manufacturing data signals cooling in the U.S. sector but is not seen as enough to deter the Federal Reserve from likely raising interest rates. Higher rate expectations have strengthened the U.S. dollar and pushed bond yields above 5%, pressuring gold prices. Investors remain cautious as the Fed's rate decision approaches, limiting safe-haven demand for gold.
