Analyst Fawad Razaqzada said gold's move this week would largely depend on US Treasury yields and the dollar. "If bond prices fall further, or yields rise, that could put pressure on low- and zero-yielding assets such as gold," he said.

Last week, as the Federal Reserve left wide open for further interest rate cuts next year...

William Marshall and Bill Zu of Goldman Sachs said that the increase in the size of US Treasury auctions in the future is likely to favor shorter-dated Treasuries. They expect nominal two-, three-, five- and seven-year Treasury auctions to continue to increase, while floating rate notes will increase less, and 10-, 20- and 30-year Treasury auctions will remain stable. This trend is expected to start in November 2026. They said: Over time, we expect this to decrease...
