Gold prices advanced firmly during the North American session on Tuesday amid a risk-on environment and steady US Treasury yields. Investors ignored better-than-expected economic data from the United States (US), failing to underpin the already battered Greenback. The XAU/USD trades at $2,524 and gains over 0.20%.
The financial markets' narrative has remained unchanged since Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell announced last Friday that the time for lowering interest rates has come. This sent US Treasury bond yields tumbling and the US Dollar to a new 12-month low, levels last seen in July 2023, according to the US Dollar Index (DXY).
