Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD pulls back to $3,325 with the bullish trend still intact
- Gold eases on risk appetite but maintains its broader upside trend intact.
- US Dollar's weakness is keeping Gold from falling further.
- XAU/USD: Below the $3,325 trendline support, bears will be targeting $3,285.
Gold (XAU/USD) is trading lower on Monday, weighed by softer demand for safe havens. Trump’s decision to back away from his plan to impose 50% tariffs on the EU has boosted risk appetite in an otherwise light trading day, and has trimmed some of the latest precious metals’ gains.
The US, however, remains on the defensive. The USD Index is struggling to take a significant distance from one-month lows, with investors wary about the US fiscal health and the impact of Trump’s sweeping bill on a ballooning debt. This is keeping Gold from retreating further.
