Gold Price News and Forecast: XAU/USD flat for the day, consolidating Wednesday's slide
|XAU/USD outlook: Gold remains in red after Wed's strong fall and pressures key support at $1920
Spot gold remains under pressure on Thursday following 3.7% fall previous day, as subsequent recovery attempts from one-week low at $1924 stalled and metal's price fell back near Wed-Thu lows ($1924). Dovish Fed and likely scenario in which the US central bank is not going to allow an increase of interest rates for some time, should be supportive for the yellow metal's price, currently in corrective phase from new all-time high ($2074).
