The collapse in Gold prices continued on Friday with the XAU/USD down to $1,850.00.
Gold is set to close in the red for the fifth straight day as losses accelerate.
XAU/USD is on pace to erase all of 2023's gains, only 1.5% away from the year's opening prices.
The XAU/USD saw ongoing losses accelerate through Friday trading, dipping to $1,850.00 and continuing to churn out new lows for the day to cap off a trading week that has seen only losses for Gold.
Gold spot prices are down almost 4% for the week and continuing to grind lower. The XAU/USD is in the red over 5% from the mid-September swing high just shy of $1,950.00.
The Federal Reserve (Fed) continues to make statements affirming their dedication to tighter policy moving forward, and tight monetary policy coupled with price pressures in US Treasury yields is seeing Gold prices utterly deflate on the charts.
Inflation pressures continue to ease in the US, with the Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) Price Index printing at 0.1% for the month of August, and the inflation that Gold was meant to serve as a hedge against is rapidly evaporating, leaving XAU/USD bulls in the lurch.
