黄金期货目前上涨0.4%，至每盎司2682.80美元，投资者目前正在等待周五公布的美国非农就业报告，以进一步了解美联储货币政策方向。Despite the strengthening of the dollar, gold prices rose slightly in the morning as investors sought safe-haven Assets amid increasing market uncertainty.
The December ADP employment data from the USA was weaker than expected, providing some support for the Federal Reserve to potentially be less cautious about interest rate cuts. However, the meeting minutes released on Wednesday showed that officials currently plan to keep interest rates stable, indicating their awareness of the risks of inflation exceeding expectations, partly due to uncertainties surrounding President-elect Trump's policies.
Paul Ashworth from Capital Economics stated, "The current median interest rate forecast shows a rate cut of only 50 basis points this year, which is not surprising."
Gold Futures are currently up 0.4% to $2,682.80 per ounce, as investors are awaiting the USA's non-farm payroll report scheduled for Friday to gain further insight into the Federal Reserve's monetary policy direction.
