The metal hit its lowest level in more than a month, driven by improved sentiment surrounding US-China trade negotiations.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Shift in Sentiment Weighs on Gold<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>The recent decline in gold is largely attributed to a major sentiment shift. Easing tensions between the US and China have reduced fears of a prolonged trade war, undermining gold&rsquo;s appeal as a safe-haven asset.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Additionally, profit-taking after the strong April rally added to the selling pressure, as traders locked in gains amid the changing outlook.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In short, the bullish sentiment that drove April\u2019s surge has now reversed, triggering a notable pullback in gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Technical Outlook: Gold Consolidation is Likely<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As noted earlier, gold appears to have found solid footing above the key $3,000 psychological level, marking its entry into a new era.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-large is-resized\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"554\" src=\"https:\/\/www.ad-fx.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-7-1024x554.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5269\" style=\"width:650px\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.adfxzh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-7-1024x554.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.adfxzh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-7-300x162.png 300w, https:\/\/www.adfxzh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-7-150x81.png 150w, https:\/\/www.adfxzh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-7-768x415.png 768w, https:\/\/www.adfxzh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-7-1536x831.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.adfxzh.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/image-7.png 1555w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\"><sub>XAUUSD, Daily<\/sub><\/figcaption><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<p>In the near term, the critical support zone lies between $3,200 and $3,160\u2014this range represents the breakout zone from the April 10th rally following tariff announcements.

However, upside momentum could remain limited under the current market conditions.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>A clear break below the $3,200\u2013$3,160 support zone would likely open the way for gold to trade lower within a $3,200\u2013$3,000 range.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Broad Outlook: Gold Remains Structurally Supported<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Despite the recent pullback, gold&rsquo;s long-term fundamentals remain intact. Central bank buying\u2014driven by ongoing de-dollarization efforts\u2014continues to support demand.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Meanwhile, uncertainty surrounding the US-China trade relationship and the pause in reciprocal tariffs still poses potential risks that may sustain safe-haven interest in gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>While short-term price action may reflect profit-taking, shifting sentiment, or cyclical corrections, the broader outlook remains favorable. In particular, the $3,000 level is likely to serve as a strong psychological and structural support for gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Gold prices fell sharply this week, dropping over 5% before staging a sharp rebound yesterday.
