Tentative U.S.-Iran diplomacy has also reduced geopolitical risk without eliminating demand for precious metals. Gold steadies as oil slump cools inflation pressure, equities rally
• Positive Sentiment: Analysts at abrdn view gold’s ability to hold the $4,000 level as evidence that its longer-term bull-market structure remains intact, potentially making the correction attractive for strategic buyers. Gold’s $4,000 floor offers compelling value
• Positive Sentiment: Structural demand remains a tailwind: Tether purchased roughly 14 metric tonnes of gold in the second quarter, bringing its reserves above 146 tonnes, while central-bank buying reached a quarterly record.

• Neutral Sentiment: Investors are awaiting July nonfarm payrolls after the Federal Reserve held rates steady. A soft labor report could support gold through lower-rate expectations, while a strong report could strengthen the dollar and Treasury yields.
• Neutral Sentiment: Gold has recently benefited from a technical rebound, but its next direction depends more on the dollar, bond yields and economic data than on traditional safe-haven demand. Kalshi’s launch of short-term gold and silver prediction markets may increase trading activity but does not alter GLD’s fundamentals. Gold rises on technical rebound
• Negative Sentiment: Better-than-expected ISM manufacturing data is giving the Fed more room to focus on inflation, while a rebounding U.S. dollar has pressured gold despite lower yields. GLD also faces periodic outflows as investors favor higher-yielding assets.
