Amidst shifting global dynamics, gold prices retreated from the crucial $2000 level, pivoting attention from Middle East tensions to upcoming central bank decisions, particularly those of the Federal Reserve and the Bank of England. The dollar, influenced by market sentiment, weakened as expectations grew that the U.S. central bank might defer additional rate hikes. In stark contrast, Japan’s long-term yields reached a decade high, propelling the Japanese Yen against its counterparts, fueled by optimism surrounding a potential tweak in the Bank of Japan’s Yield Curve Control policy. Additionally, Australia’s Retail Sales data, surpassing expectations, led the Aussie dollar to gain 0.65% against the U.S. dollar.
