During such phases, a breakout above the recent peak of 2630 or a drop below short-term support near 2614 often signals the next directional move.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading has-medium-font-size\">Implications for the Broader Market<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Last week\u2019s softer-than-expected <a href=\"https:\/\/t.co\/MudETQDJpS\" title=\"\">US PCE inflation<\/a> reading trimmed concerns over the speed of interest-rate cuts in 2024 and 2025.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Although policymakers scaled back their projections for next year, they continue to emphasise data dependence. If inflation remains contained, gold may gain support as yields stabilise or dip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The US Dollar Index has hovered near two-year highs due to ongoing global uncertainties, but cooler PCE data introduced questions about the pace of future Fed moves.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>See also: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/analysis\/us-dollar-climbs-near-two-year-high\/\">US Dollar Climbs Near Two-Year High<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Any retreat in the dollar tends to brighten gold\u2019s appeal, especially with end-of-year market flows adding extra volatility.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Liquidity often drops around the holidays, which amplifies price swings. Even modest buying or selling pressure can lead to abrupt moves above resistance or below support.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Some traders reduce position sizes or employ tighter stops to cope with rapid shifts.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/trade-now\/\">Create your live VT Markets account<\/a>\u00a0and\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/myaccount.vtmarkets.com\/login\">start trading<\/a>\u00a0now.<\/strong><\/p>\n\r\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><b>Start trading now \u2014 click <a href=\"https:\/\/www.vtmarkets.com\/en-ca\/trade-now\/\">here<\/a> to create your real VT Markets account.<\/b>\n\n<\/p>\n\n<!-- vt-src:16411 -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gold gains 0.5%, nearing $2,630, while S&amp;P 500 stays flat.
