Gold slips 1.5% to $3,957.74/oz, on track for a fourth straight monthly decline

AI Market Summary
Gold is set for a fourth straight monthly decline as markets price a higher probability of Fed rate hikes and a firmer U.S. dollar, both negative for non-yielding bullion. With Middle East uncertainty not escalating near-term, rates and USD dynamics are dominating precious-metals pricing. Silver, platinum, and palladium weakness reinforces a broader de-risking tone across the complex ahead of key U.S. labor data.
