Gold Prices Firm as Soft U.S. Data Sparks Rate Hike Pause,...

Gold prices showed strength on Thursday, buoyed by recent weak U.S. economic data, which has increased speculation that the Federal Reserve might delay further rate hikes this year. However, a simultaneous surge in Treasury yields and a stronger dollar have kept gold on course for a monthly decline.

Here are the key details:

- **Spot gold** rose by 0.2% to reach $1,946.17 per ounce as of 0114 GMT. This puts it close to the one-month high it achieved on Wednesday.

- U.S. gold futures remained steady at $1,973.10.

This delicate balance between economic data, interest rates, and currency movements is closely watched by investors in the gold market.
