黄金价格猛涨到接近3600美元, 原因是美国工作数据疲软, Gold prices soar to near-record $3,600/oz as weak US jobs data fuels rate cut expectations.

黄金价格几乎创下每盎司3 600美元的纪录,因为疲软的美国就业数据提高了本月美联储削减利率的预期。 Gold prices hit a near-record high of $3,600 per ounce as weak US job data increased expectations for a Federal Reserve rate cut this month. 8月,美国经济只增加了22 000个就业机会,失业率提高到4.3%,并显示出经济关切,这驱使黄金需求成为安全的避风港。 The US economy added only 22,000 jobs in August, raising the unemployment rate to 4.3% and signaling economic concerns, which has driven demand for gold as a safe haven. 较低的利率降低了持有黄金和权衡美元的机会成本,使贵金属对投资者更有吸引力。 Lower interest rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding gold and weigh on the dollar, making the precious metal more attractive to investors. 中央银行,特别是中国中央银行也一直在增加其黄金储备,进一步支持金属的上涨。 Central banks, particularly China's, have also been increasing their gold reserves, further supporting the metal's rise.
