๐ฅ GOLD IS GETTING HIT BY STRONGER U.S. DATA. ๐บ๐ธ๐
Gold is struggling below $4,300 as stronger-than-expected U.S. economic data pushes traders to price in more Fed rate hikes. ๐
U.S. business activity just posted its strongest growth in more than five years.
Sounds bullish for the economy.
But for gold?
Thatโs a different story. โ ๏ธ
Higher rates + higher Treasury yields + a stronger dollar make a non-yielding asset like gold less attractive.
And traders are now betting on another Fed hike in October. ๐ฆ
The interesting part:
The stronger the U.S. economy looks, the more pressure gold could face from monetary policy.
