Gold rises to $4,424.28 an ounce as September rate-hike fears ease ahead of Fed minutes
Gold extended a third session of gains as soft U.S. jobs, inflation and retail data reduced perceived odds of near-term Fed tightening, while the dollar sat near multi-month lows. Markets now focus on upcoming Fed minutes for confirmation on the rate path, reinforcing bullion's appeal via lower real-rate expectations. Geopolitical tensions also supported safe-haven demand, with silver and platinum higher and palladium modestly weaker.
