Probability

44%

Gold trades at $4,593 on September 2 (intraday range: $4,509–$4,602), driven by safe-haven demand from the US-Iran Hormuz conflict and inflation concerns (July PCE at 3.7%). On NFP day (September 4), weak payrolls — Capital Economics forecasts only +90K after July's -23K — would add further upside. A strong NFP would reinforce the Fed-hike narrative (CME FedWatch: 66%), briefly pressuring gold, but the geopolitical floor is high. Closing above $4,650 (+$57 vs. current) requires either continued escalation or a weak NFP.
