July 2024 gold market: Fresh records on reviving rate-cut hopes

Bullish

Softer inflation and rate-cut hopes drove fresh records.

Gold pushed to new record highs toward $2,480 in late July 2024 as a softer US inflation print revived expectations that the Fed would soon cut rates. A weaker dollar and safe-haven demand amid US political uncertainty added to the momentum.
