周二,金价跌破每盎司3310美元,因对美中贸易紧张局势缓解的乐观情绪抑制了避险需求。美中高级别贸易谈判于周一在伦敦开始,并将于今天继续,因为双方都试图在从关税扩大到稀土元素限制的争端中巩固脆弱的休战。财政部长斯科特·贝森特称周一的讨论是一次“很好的会议”,而商务部长霍华德·卢特尼克则称其“富有成效”,这增强了世界两大经济体在解冻关系方面取得进展的希望。投资者也在期待本周晚些时候公布的美国通胀数据,以了解美联储的货币政策路径。与此同时,纽约联邦储备委员会周一公布的一项调查显示,美国人对未来通胀的担忧在5月份有所缓解,而对个人财务的信心有所改善。
Gold prices fell below $3,310 per ounce on Tuesday, as optimism over easing US-China trade tensions dampened safe-haven demand. High-level US-China trade talks began in London on Monday and were set to continue today, as both sides sought to shore up a fragile truce in a dispute that has expanded from tariffs to restrictions on rare earth elements. Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent described Monday’s discussions as a “good meeting,” while Commerce Secretary Howard Lutnick described them as “fruitful,” bolstering hopes of progress in thawing relations between the world’s two largest economies. Investors are also looking ahead to US inflation data due later this week for insights into the Federal Reserve's monetary policy path. Meanwhile, a survey released Monday by the New York Federal Reserve showed that Americans’ concerns about future inflation eased in May, while confidence in their personal finances improved.
