GOLD PRICE FORECAST: XAU/USD TRADES MILDLY LOWER AND CLOSES A LOSING WEEK AFTER US PCE FIGURES
- The XAU/USD experiences a slight decrease, holding slightly above $2,018 with a minor pullback.
- Key indicators such as RSI and MACD demonstrate a subdued buying momentum, as bulls consolidate December’s rally.
On Friday's session, the XAU/USD was seen trading at $2,018, presenting a slight decline of 0.08% and closing a 0.55% weekly loss. After reaching a level of $2,135 in December, buyers have been largely taking a pause, suggesting a neutral to a bullish outlook on the daily chart. Despite some momentum observed in the four-hour chart, the indicators remain relatively weak.
In addition, the USD recovery fueled by markets adjusting their bets on the Federal Reserve (Fed) due to the US economy showing resilience is pushing the metal lower. On Friday, soft Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) figures from December from the US didn’t fuel a significant reaction to the market expectations on the Fed which meets next week. As for now, markets pushed the start of the easing cycle to May from March but the Fed's tone may change those expectations
