The weakening of gold is due to the significant increase in the value of the US dollar on the international market over the past few days, as a result of the Federal Reserve's decision to maintain its tight monetary policy.
The US dollar index has risen by 0.2%, making gold more expensive for those who hold other currencies.
Reflecting investors' lack of optimism about the prospects for gold prices, the world's largest gold exchange-traded fund (ETF), SPDR Gold Trust, continues to sell off its holdings, reaching their lowest level since January 2020.
