Gold holds at Ascending Triangle Support after false breakdown near $3,340

Gold dropped to a fresh three-week low of $3,311.58/oz during Asian hours after earlier rebounding to $3,340. Selling pressure stemmed from a stronger USD, though softer US yields provided some cushion. Technically, the metal staged a false breakdown of ascending triangle support but is now trading back at that level, keeping short-term sentiment mixed.
Markets now shift focus to the FOMC minutes and the Jackson Hole Symposium, with investors seeking clarity on future rate cuts and the dissenting votes from Fed officials Bowman and Waller. Upcoming flash PMI data will also be key in shaping expectations for US economic momentum and Fed policy outlook.
