The <strong>ADP employment report<\/strong> showed an unexpected drop of <strong>32,000 jobs<\/strong> in private payrolls.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In addition, the <strong>Challenger Job Cuts<\/strong> report recorded <strong>71,000 layoffs in November<\/strong>, pushing the year-to-date total to nearly <strong>1.17 million<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-rich is-provider-twitter wp-block-embed-twitter\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<blockquote class=\"twitter-tweet\" data-width=\"500\" data-dnt=\"true\"><p lang=\"en\" dir=\"ltr\">Employers announced more than 71,000 layoffs last month in worst November since 2022: Challenger <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/ovShPgnDDw\">https:\/\/t.co\/ovShPgnDDw<\/a><\/p>&mdash; Yahoo Finance (@YahooFinance) <a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/YahooFinance\/status\/1996574209238057045?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw\">December 4, 2025<\/a><\/blockquote><script async src=\"https:\/\/platform.twitter.com\/widgets.js\" charset=\"utf-8\"><\/script>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">This is the highest cumulative layoff number in over a decade, excluding the pandemic shock, and points towards a <strong>softening employment landscape<\/strong>. Such figures often precede a policy pivot, particularly as <strong>real wage growth<\/strong> begins to outpace job creation \u2014 a sign the Fed may see its work as nearing completion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Technical Analysis<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gold is holding firm above the <strong>$4,190<\/strong> level, trading at <strong>$4,197.93<\/strong>, just below its November peak of <strong>$4,381.32<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The uptrend remains structurally intact, with all three key moving averages (5, 10, 30) sloping upward in a bullish formation. This suggests that buyers continue to dominate, even though the pace of the rally has moderated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/27\/2026\/03\/image-12-1024x450.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-36077\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The MACD is still in positive territory, with the lines having converged but not yet crossed bearishly. This flattening of momentum reflects consolidation rather than reversal.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Price has spent the past few weeks moving sideways in a tight band between <strong>$4,100 and $4,200<\/strong>, building a potential base for a new breakout attempt.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A daily close above <strong>$4,220<\/strong> would likely trigger renewed bullish momentum toward <strong>$4,300\u2013$4,350<\/strong>, and a retest of the <strong>$4,381.32<\/strong> high. On the downside, immediate support lies at <strong>$4,080<\/strong>, followed by the <strong>$3,950\u2013$4,000<\/strong> zone, which coincides with the 30-day moving average.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Cautious Forecast<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Gold is likely to remain range-bound into the FOMC meeting. If the PCE print comes in soft and Fed officials confirm a December cut, bulls may attempt a move back toward $4,250. However, any delay or hawkish pushback could test the lower band near $4,120.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Learn more about trading <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/precious-metals\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">Precious Metals<\/a> on <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/trade-now\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\" title=\"\">VT Markets<\/a> today.<\/strong><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gold prices slip while traders await the PCE report;
