Gold Price Prediction: The XAU/USD pair remains stable near $1,750 as central bankers travel to Jackson Hole

Gold price (XAU/USD) ranges between $1,745 and $1,746 as traders prepare for Wednesday's European session.

 

In doing so, the shiny metal reflects the cautious disposition of the markets ahead of the US Durable Goods Orders report for July. The fact that global officials have recently left for Friday's important address at the Kansas City Fed's symposium in Jackson Hole further restrains the bullion's quick movement.

 

According to Reuters, "many of the central bankers travelling to the Grand Teton mountains this week are hopeful that the current inflationary pressures will abate swiftly enough to allow them to fight the projected economic downturns around the world."

 

Notably, the decline in US 10-year Treasury yields, near 3.03% and down 2.5 basis points (bps), also benefits the gold price. In contrast, economic concerns surrounding China, the world's largest consumer of commodities, impact on the XAU/USD exchange rate. Bloomberg reported that "authorities have been attempting to put a floor under a downturn caused by China's widening real estate crisis as well as a lingering impact to consumer and business mood caused by a stop-and-go Covid control plan."

 

Stock futures remain moderately offered as the US Dollar Index (DXY) oscillates near the intraday high after reversing from the yearly peak the day before.

 

US Durable Goods Orders for July, anticipated to be 0.6% versus 2.0% previously, will be crucial for intraday direction. However, Friday's statement by Fed Chairman Jerome Powell at the Kansas City Fed's conference in Jackson Hole deserves significant consideration. If authorities see recession as a greater risk than inflation and demonstrate a willingness to reverse the previously hawkish tilt, the XAU/USD could see additional gains.
