Gold prices experienced significant volatility last week, initially rising on Middle East tensions but falling sharply after strong US employment data and rising Treasury yields reignited fears of Fed rate hikes. The metal briefly peaked at $4,545.55 per ounce before dropping to a weekly low of $4,311.93. Market sentiment turned bearish as investors weighed geopolitical risks against robust economic indicators, with many analysts expecting further declines unless geopolitical tensions ease or central banks intervene. Upcoming inflation data and central bank decisions will be closely watched for clues on gold's direction.
