XAUUSD

XAU/USD (Gold vs. US Dollar) is a widely traded commodity pair that represents the price of gold in US dollars. It is considered a safe-haven asset, meaning it tends to rise during economic uncertainty, inflation, or geopolitical tensions. Gold prices are influenced by Federal Reserve interest rate decisions, US dollar strength, inflation rates, central bank policies, and global risk sentiment. When the USD weakens or inflation rises, gold prices usually go up, while higher interest rates and a strong dollar tend to push prices down. XAU/USD is a favorite among traders for its volatility and long-term value preservation.
