XAU / USD retreats from the $ 1,890 zone after US data.

  • Gold gained momentum and approached the highs of the week, then fell back after data.
  • May US PMI report beat expectations.

The Gold eventually broke above $ 1,880 and climbed to $ 1,889, marking a two-day high. It braked just below Wednesday’s high and then fell back, erasing the day’s gains on US data. The price is just below $ 1,880, with volatility on the rise.

The preliminary PMI report for May from the US showed figures above expectations, which generated a rise in the dollar and took momentum from metals, which fell back erasing the gains of the day.

Silver had traded above $ 28.00 and is now in neutral territory at $ 27.75. The data had a strong impact that triggered volatility in the market and boosted the dollar against the main currencies.

One of the keys will be to see where the XAU / USD stands once the market stabilizes, according to data. Taking them above $ 1880 could anticipate a new test at $ 1890, while doing it below $ 1870, the correction could be accelerated.
