Gold prices held steady on Thursday as investors absorbed the latest U.S. jobless claims report, which indicated a labor market showing resilience. Initial claims for unemployment benefits came in at 190,000 for the week, below expectations and signaling ongoing strength in the economy. The data added to speculation that the Federal Reserve may maintain its hawkish stance, putting downward pressure on gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset.

The precious metal has struggled to gain momentum amid a strong U.S. dollar and higher Treasury yields, which typically weigh on non-yielding assets like gold. Analysts noted that while the labor market data was softer than the previous week, it remains well below levels that would suggest significant economic stress, diminishing immediate demand for safe-haven investments.

Market participants are now turning their attention to upcoming economic data and Federal Reserve commentary to gauge future policy moves. For now, gold’s subdued performance reflects a balancing act between economic uncertainty and the Fed’s likely path forward.
