Oil prices drag down gold, with the yellow metal posting its largest weekly loss
Gold prices declined over the week, recording their largest loss since June 2026, despite an increase in today’s trading; this is due to ongoing pressures from rising oil prices and growing concerns about global inflation. The rise in oil and expectations of US monetary policy tightening have reduced support for gold, even though moderate US inflation data had previously strengthened hopes for gold's support. Additionally, high yields on the dollar and interest rates impact gold's appeal, while geopolitical tensions in the Middle East remain a source of concern affecting the market.
