Gold Price Forecast: Fed Hike and 5% Treasury Yields Test Recovery - FXEmpire

AI desk brief

Gold (XAU) traded around $4,300 as markets digested the Federal Reserve’s first rate hike in more than three years. A 10-year Treasury yield near 5% and a seven-week high in the U.S. dollar are adding pressure, although gold has recovered from a six-week low.

The next move is framed as a function of whether Treasury yields continue higher or ease after the initial Fed reaction. The piece also points to the gold/silver relationship as a factor shaping the near-term path.
