The gold market is closely following the latest developments in negotiations over the US debt ceiling. Edward Moya, senior market analyst at OANDA, said, “Financial markets are currently waiting for the latest progress in negotiations over the US debt ceiling and observing how bad the international tensions will be after the G7 summit. Gold is falling before we see market pressure.”
