Breakdown of Head & Shoulder in Gold : The Yellow Metal remains under pressure

A U.S. federal court on Wednesday blocked President Donald Trump’s "Liberation Day" tariffs, ruling that he exceeded his authority by imposing broad duties on imports from all countries.
The decision boosted investor sentiment, reflected in Thursday’s equity market rally. However, the improved risk appetite and continued strength in the U.S. dollar weighed on traditional safe-haven assets, pushing gold prices lower for the fourth straight session.
Adding to the pressure on gold, minutes from the Federal Reserve's May meeting, released Wednesday, revealed a consensus among officials to maintain a wait-and-see approach on interest rates amid ongoing uncertainty over the economic outlook and trade policies.
Policymakers emphasized the need to keep rates steady until the full economic impact of recent government policy changes becomes clearer.
