☀️ Comprehensive Morning News｜2026.07.23 Thursday
🟡 Gold (XAUUSD)
Spot gold price: 4117.74 USD/ounce
Past two days’ performance: Gold rose for two consecutive days. Yesterday it briefly broke above $4160, and today’s early trading saw a pullback to around 4110, with clear consolidation in the high-price area.
Technical outlook: RSI is about 58, still in a relatively strong range. MACD remains bullish, but the red histogram bars are shrinking, indicating slowing near-term momentum. Support to watch: 4100/4085. Resistance to watch: 4140/4160.
Macro outlook: Safe-haven demand and central bank gold purchases continue to support gold prices. However, a firm US dollar and the Fed’s high-rate expectations limit upside room. Tonight’s ECB interest rate decision and the latest US initial jobless claims are worth monitoring.
Conclusion: Mildly bullish consolidation. Above 4100, the uptrend rhythm is still expected to hold.
