Gold Futures Drop After Three-Session Winning Streak Amid Dollar Gains
Gold futures fell on Monday, ending a three-day winning streak as investors shifted focus back to U.S. interest rates and bond yields. The dollar strengthened against major currencies following the Federal Reserve's recent rate hike, which contributed to gold’s decline in value. The move highlights renewed market attention toward monetary policy decisions by central banks, particularly the Fed. Higher U.S. Treasury yields typically make the dollar more attractive compared to non-yielding assets like gold, leading investors to rebalance their portfolios accordingly. Gold prices have been volatile amid ongoing uncertainty about inflation and global economic conditions.
