Gold bias flipped 68 times to weak bearish on July 30, 2026
Gold prices fell amid a hawkish monetary policy outlook and cooling demand, with global jewelry demand dropping to 278 tons in Q2 and India's tariff hike hurting organized trade. The metal also faced pressure ahead of the Federal Reserve's policy outlook, contributing to its decline below $4,000 per ounce.
