Factors

Economic Data: Strong US data often weakens gold, increasing USD strength makes gold less attractive.

Interest Rates: Higher US interest rates can decrease gold's appeal as it yields no interest.

Inflation: Gold is seen as an inflation hedge; rising inflation typically increases gold prices.

Geopolitical Events: Uncertainty and crises boost gold's safe-haven appeal.

US Dollar Strength: A weaker USD generally makes gold more affordable for other currency holders.
