Gold Bulls Step Back as Market Awaits Delayed US NFP Report Gold prices faced renewed selling pressure during Tuesday’s Asian session, extending the previous day’s pullback from the $4,350 area—near the highest level recorded since October 21. The modest intraday decline reflects a shift in market sentiment, as optimism surrounding progress in the Russia‑Ukraine peace negotiations reduces demand for traditional safe‑haven assets. With investors adopting a more cautious stance, gold bulls appear to be moving to the sidelines ahead of the delayed US Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) release. The upcoming labor market data is expected to be a key catalyst for short‑term price direction, particularly as markets continue to assess the broader macroeconomic landscape and the Federal Reserve’s policy outlook.
