JPMorgan cuts Q4 2024 gold target to $4,500 an ounce, warns risks skew lower
JPMorgan cut its 2024 gold targets sharply and flagged downside risks, citing weaker-than-expected sector demand and the possibility of earlier Fed rate hikes if U.S. data stay hot. The shift reduces near-term upside expectations for non-yielding bullion despite recent spot strength and also pressures the broader precious-metals complex, with lower short-term outlooks for silver, platinum and palladium.
