The bright metal is up already 20% this month, while posting over 5% gains so far this week.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The next big directional impetus in Gold could depend on the Fed\u2019s policy verdict, with a no interest-rate-change decision widely anticipated. However, Fed Chair Jerome Powell\u2019s assessment of the labor market conditions and hints at rate outlook will likely significantly impact the USD\u2019s performance and hence, that of the non-yielding assets such as Gold.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>However, markets will also remain attentive to Trump\u2019s announcement of the next Fed Chair pick, which analysts predict could coincide with the Fed policy decision, overshadowing the latter and exacerbating concerns over the Fed\u2019s independence. This could play out in favor of Gold buyers as the Greenback could be pushed back under the bus.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The USD plunged to four-year lows against its major currency rivals late Tuesday after Trump said the value of the Dollar was &#8220;great&#8221;, when asked whether he thought it had declined too much.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The US currency also faced headwinds from a weak US Conference Board Consumer Confidence data released on Tuesday. US consumer confidence slumped to the lowest level in more than 11-1\/2 years in January, to 84.5 in January.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading has-vivid-red-color has-text-color has-small-font-size\">\u0e01\u0e32\u0e23\u0e27\u0e34\u0e40\u0e04\u0e23\u0e32\u0e30\u0e2b\u0e4c\u0e17\u0e32\u0e07\u0e40\u0e17\u0e04\u0e19\u0e34\u0e04\u0e23\u0e32\u0e22\u0e27\u0e31\u0e19<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img fetchpriority=\"high\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"365\" src=\"https:\/\/www.maxainasia.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-1024x365.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-23554\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.meisheng.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-1024x365.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.meisheng.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-300x107.png 300w, https:\/\/www.meisheng.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-768x274.png 768w, https:\/\/www.meisheng.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13-18x6.png 18w, https:\/\/www.meisheng.asia\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/01\/image-13.png 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 767px) 89vw, (max-width: 1000px) 54vw, (max-width: 1071px) 543px, 580px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>In the daily chart, XAU\/USD trades at $5,230.25.
