On Monday, October 24, spot gold rallied and retreated, early in the session because the dollar fell to hit nearly two-week lows; gold prices once surged near the 1670 mark, but with the dollar twisted down slightly up, gold prices gave back the gains, currently trading at $ 1655 near.
U.S. crude oil has weakened, currently trading at $84.11 per barrel, down about 1.2%. The performance of oil prices was slightly dragged down by the reduction in crude oil imports by large Asian countries in September, and the sharp weakening of A-shares following a series of delayed Chinese data releases has raised market concerns about the demand outlook. However, investors still need to keep an eye on the U.S.-Saudi game, with the Biden administration announcing an extension of strategic crude supplies last week after OPEC+ decided to cut production to support oil prices earlier in the month.
There are more economic data this week, especially focusing on the market's expectations for changes in U.S. GDP in the third quarter and U.S. PCE data in September, plus watch out for news related to Japan's intervention in the currency market and the U.K. political situation, and pay attention to news related to the geopolitical situation. This trading day please focus on the performance of the PMI data for October in Europe and the United States, the current market is expected to be more pessimistic, and is expected to provide safe-haven support to gold prices. However, investors also need to pay attention to the market for the dollar safe-haven buying situation.

Spot gold weakened slightly during the Asian session on Thursday (April 6), hitting a two-day low of $2007.89 per ounce and now trading near $2014.15. A series of weak economic data has fueled fears of an impending recession in the US, giving safe-haven support to the dollar. And some dollar shorts took profits, and gold bulls also took profits ahead of Good Friday and the non-farm payrolls data, putting pressure on gold prices.

Spot gold oscillated slightly lower during the Asian session on Tuesday (April 4) and is currently trading around $1980.13 per ounce. The dollar index rebounded mildly after a big drop overnight, putting pressure on gold prices. However, this week will see the non-farm payrolls report, there is no important economic data out on Tuesday, and the market wait-and-see sentiment is getting stronger.
On Monday, in OPEC + members unexpectedly cut production reignited market concerns about long-term inflation and sparked uncertainty about the Fed's response, the dollar index once up to the 103 mark, and then on a "vertical roller coaster", giving back all the gains of the day and once lost 102 mark, finally closed down 0.53% at 102.04; U.S. 10-year Treasury yields rose and then fell, as data showed that the U.S. economy continues to slow, it fell sharply in the U.S. session, and once to a low
