At the time of writing gold is rallying to session highs, sitting above $2,520. This week is all about US employment data releases, and all the information and inference they bring. Tomorrow is the big one: Non-Farm Payrolls data.
Non-Farm Payrolls data is always closely watched but there is a particular focus on this week’s as it will give a clear picture of how big a rate cut the FOMC will commit to, at their September meeting in a fortnight’s time.
For those wondering why Non-Farms’ Payroll carries so much weight, particularly this month, then take a look at our explainer recorded earlier on today. It’s particularly useful if you’re wondering how and why it matters to the gold price.
