Gold prices settled at a record high for a 13th time this year on Friday, as various factors including surging geopolitical tensions, U.S. interest rate cut bets, and near-record buying by central banks maintained the metal’s rally despite strong U.S. job growth in March.
The safe haven potential of gold has more than made up for a significantly stronger than expected U.S. job market, which feeds into concerns that Federal Reserve interest rate cuts are not such a sure thing after all; gold prices are closely linked to rates, and higher rates diminish the metal’s appeal.
