CITIC Futures believes that in the short term, macro data and geopolitical risks are in a tug-of-war, causing gold prices to fluctuate. This week, the U.S. will release data on JOLTS job openings, Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE), and non-farm employment. Although optimistic trade sentiment dominates the short-term market, the rising geopolitical risks, coupled with Trump's inconsistent statements on the Russia-Ukraine issue, exacerbate uncertainty. Additionally, central banks considering increasing gold exposure (the Central Bank of Kenya is actively considering increasing gold reserves) may limit the downside potential for gold prices. The market generally expects that the Federal Reserve may restart the interest rate cut cycle in June, limiting the upside potential for the U.S. dollar, but the Federal Reserve's policy path and U.S. macro data (such as non-farm employment and PCE) will remain key variables
