Gold Prices and Economic Uncertainty: Gold prices increased as traders sought safe havens amid warnings from the Federal Reserve about economic uncertainty, despite speculation surrounding a potential U.S. trade deal limiting gains.
Trade Talks and Market Reactions: The announcement of U.S.-China trade talks pressured gold prices initially, but optimism waned as a significant trade deal seemed unlikely; President Trump's mention of a deal with the UK further dampened expectations due to limited economic implications.
