The XAU/USD pair is consolidating, trading just below the 4,200.00 mark as market participants await the outcome of the U.S. Federal Reserve’s policy meeting scheduled for December 10. There is almost no doubt that the regulator will cut rates by 25 basis points to the 3.50–3.75% range. Updated macroeconomic projections to be presented alongside the decision may influence sentiment across global markets. Expectations of monetary easing are already supporting gold, which gained 1.2% over the past week, making it attractive to investors looking to hedge inflation and currency volatility risks. Despite fluctuations, the overall trend remains positive, with traders continuing to build long positions in anticipation of a weaker dollar and lower borrowing costs.
