World gold prices continued to decline on Tuesday as the USD strengthened and yields rose, pressuring gold. Spot gold briefly fell to 4,712.04 USD/ounce, its lowest level in more than a week. The USD index rose 0.2% against other currencies, making gold priced in USD more expensive for holders of other currencies, while the 10-year US Treasury yield also increased.
RJO Futures’ senior market strategist Bob Haberkorn said rising yields and a stronger dollar are pressuring gold, alongside news and signals relating to Iran, which pushed energy prices higher and added pressure on the metal. US President Donald Trump said on Tuesday he did not want to extend the ceasefire with Iran as it nears expiration and that the US military is ready to act if talks fail, pushing crude oil prices up by more than 3%.
Investors also focused on the Senate Banking Committee hearing on confirming former Fed Governor Kevin Warsh as Fed chair. Warsh called for changing the central bank’s regime, including a new approach to inflation control and reforming how policy signals are communicated, which could lead to Fed officials restraining too many signals about monetary policy. Traders are expected to monitor Warsh’s remarks closely, with market volatility potentially rising sharply around the hearing.
