📊 $XAU Gold – Pullback After Record Rally

•Gold slid ~0.5% on Tuesday to around $5,053.80 per troy ounce, with spot bullion hovering near $5,040.

•Recently, gold hit an all-time high of $5,594.82 on January 29 before the retreat.

•Traders are cautious ahead of key U.S. economic data this week:

•December Retail Sales

•January Consumer Price Index (CPI)

•January Non-Farm Payrolls

Market Implications:

•Stronger-than-expected data may reduce bets on Fed rate cuts → could pressure gold.

•Softer data may support easier monetary policy → bullish for gold, as it’s a non-yielding safe-haven asset.

•Stay alert for price reactions around $5,040–$5,060, as the market digests these data points.
