Gold prices (XAU/USD) weakened in the Asian session on Thursday (November 27), retreating from the nearly two-week high reached the previous day. More positive market sentiment, supported by hopes for a Russia-Ukraine peace deal and the prospect of lower global interest rates, prompted some funds to shift away from safe-haven assets like gold. This occurred amid thin trading volume due to the Thanksgiving holiday in the United States.
However, gold's weakness so far appears limited. The market remains confident that the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates at its December meeting, while mixed US economic data has not changed these expectations. Continued pressure on the US dollar is an additional supporting factor for gold. In this situation, price corrections could potentially be viewed as buying opportunities by market participants who still believe in gold's prospects in a lower interest rate environment.
The gold price at the time of this analysis was released was $4,147.
