Gold Prices Edge Higher Ahead of Fed Chair Warsh’s Jackson Hole Remarks

Gold prices moved slightly higher on Friday as investors awaited remarks from U.S. Federal Reserve Chair Kevin Warsh at the Jackson Hole Economic Policy Symposium

The precious metal gained modestly as traders watched closely for signals about the Federal Reserve’s future interest-rate decisions.

Warsh’s speech is expected to provide fresh clues about the U.S. central bank’s monetary policy outlook, with markets particularly focused on the possibility of changes to interest rates.

A more dovish stance from the Fed could support gold by reducing the opportunity cost of holding the non-yielding asset, while a hawkish outlook could put pressure on prices.

Investors are also monitoring movements in the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields, which can influence demand for gold.
