Gold Prices Plunge as Rising Treasury Yields and Geopolitical Gridlock Trigger Sharp Correction

Gold experienced a sharp correction on Monday, dropping nearly 3% to fall below the crucial $4,200 per ounce mark, settling between $4,150 and $4,170. The decline was driven by a combination of rising US Treasury yields, which increased the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets, and a paradoxical lack of progress in Middle East diplomacy. Instead of acting as a safe haven, the ongoing geopolitical impasse has heightened inflation fears and liquidity concerns, prompting investors to reduce their exposure. Technically, the breakdown below $4,200 triggered automatic sell orders, pushing gold to its lowest level since early August. Traders are now focusing on upcoming US employment data (NFP) to gauge the Federal Reserve's future monetary policy direction.
