In a speech from Jackson Hole, Mr. Jerome Powell, Chairman of the US Federal Reserve (Fed), said that it may be necessary to raise interest rates further to bring inflation down from the current high levels.

The Fed will be cautious in deciding whether to tighten further or keep rates unchanged, waiting for further economic data. The Fed's job is to get inflation back to its 2% target.

The dollar index (DXY), which measures the greenback against six major currencies, rose 0.2% to 104.14. The yield on the 2-year US Treasury note closed at 5.08%, its highest since June 2007.

US economic data continues to play a key role in gold market sentiment. The gold market is generally stuck in a “wait and see” mode.

Gold Price Forecast

Craig Erlam, senior market analyst at Oanda, said that gold's upside momentum could be limited in the near term. Information from the conference and the Fed's stance suggest that interest rates will remain high in the near term, and the USD will appreciate. This is unfavorable for gold.

Economic uncertainty in China and the threat of stagnant inflation in Europe will support safe-haven demand for gold, said Christopher Vecchio, head of futures and foreign exchange at Tastylive. But the market is not ready to move higher. Gold could trade around $1,900 an ounce.
