Gold Slides $200 Amid U.S.- China Talks and Global Risk-On Sentiment: Augmont Gold Analysis
Gold prices have dropped by over $200 from their peak of $3509, driven by President Trump’s softened stance on firing Fed Chair Jerome Powell and optimism surrounding a U.S.-China trade deal. Positive geopolitical news, including talks between Russia and Ukraine, has also fueled risk-on sentiment, reducing gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset. Augmont Gold expects prices to trade between $3320 and $3400 in the short term
