What Is Impacting Gold Prices On Monday, February 17?
According to Trading Economics, traders remain focused on the risk of market disruptions due to U.S. President Donald Trump's tariff threats, as well as the Federal Reserve's monetary policy outlook. Trump's tariff policies have become increasingly unpredictable due to delays and exemptions, with geopolitical and economic uncertainties boosting gold's appeal as a haven. Investors also closely monitor news of a possible peace deal to end the war in Ukraine.
Additionally, a soft reading on retail sales last week revived bets on Fed rate cuts this year. Traders will be looking to the Fed's latest meeting minutes due later this week for any clues about the outlook for further easing, the data added.
