The bank now anticipates gold to average around $4,550 in Q3 and $4,700 in Q4, a significant reduction from previous projections. This revision is attributed to higher inflation expectations, a firm U.S. dollar, and the market pricing in a potential Fed hike in late 2026, partly due to the ongoing Iran war impacting energy prices.","category":"market_brief","source":"Kitco News","source_url":"https://vertexaisearch.cloud.google.com/grounding-api-redirect/AUZIYQGDS-5KU8NfHwux5RMAN8Dr0HPEjo1ZqVptHk0zTFupkcAfhNzKLbcQQO5fXe4jPg9Pbc0YR61cveGTuGlQXqe3OPZguc_6cSl5Q0y34T8Ii0KbXCJlO_56_yoKWvsSsfeHKzoLONVLC_q57VHJb1KajxKbqTBFson6PlTjGy6SH8w9pd9Eg0CaRZdehqd2_c2ek3kPd38b7bX1-AsvQllBWjUsUntQDttx3RsXMQANOE3_GQ==","relevance_score":90,"type":"intelligence","published_at":"2026-06-04T11:31:08.796218+00:00"},{"id":"7ecd14d5-7b1f-40a7-b84d-39c4668af618","title":"Gold Prices Show Mixed Signals Amid Geopolitical Shifts and Strong US Data","summary":"Gold prices are experiencing a tug-of-war on June 4, 2026.
