Gold Hits a Wall at $4,100 as Hawkish Fed Signals Lift DXY to 101.42
June 2026 FOMC kept rates at 3.50–3.75% while the dot plot turned more hawkish, reinforcing delayed cut expectations and lifting DXY to a 13-month high (~101.42). The stronger dollar and higher opportunity cost pressured gold, repeatedly capping rebounds near 4,100 and driving a break below 4,000 to a seven-month low. Softer ETF demand and tactical shorting into resistance amplify near-term downside sensitivity.
