Gold (XAU/USD) is exhibiting building bullish momentum as it stabilizes above the $4,800 level, showing resilience despite a lower probability of FED rate cuts. Markets are now shifting their focus toward upcoming high-impact U.S. economic data, including retail sales and Purchasing Managers' Index (PMI) figures, for fresh directional cues. Additionally, consumer sentiment signals will be closely watched to gauge the strength of the U.S. economy and its impact on the Dollar. Technically, analysts remain focused on the reclamation of the 50-day moving average as a decisive signal for sustained upside potential. Immediate support zones at $4760 and $4710 remain critical for maintaining the metal's current bullish structure. This combination of fundamental anticipation and technical stability marks a significant pivot point for precious metal investors.
