Gold Edges Higher on Possible Position Adjustments -- Market Talk
Thursday, 31 July 2025 07:19 WIB | GOLD |GOLD

Gold edges higher in the early Asian trade on possible position adjustments following the Fed's decision to leave rates unchanged as widely expected.

However, gold's gains may be curbed after Fed Chair Powell signaled at his press conference that a rate cut in September was far from guaranteed. A cautious approach by the Fed could weigh on gold prices, Traze's Erkin Kamran says in an email.

Additionally, easing trade tensions may put downward pressure on the precious metal, the CEO notes. President Trump said Wednesday that the U.S. and South Korea have struck a trade deal. Spot gold is 0.1% higher at $3,280.34/oz
