Gold rebounds to $4,600 as UOB flags overbought conditions

Gold has rebounded to $4,600 per ounce after consolidating, with buyers showing resilience amid market volatility and sustained demand for the precious metal as a safe-haven asset. United Overseas Bank (UOB) said in a technical note released this week that gold’s rally has entered overbought territory, although upward momentum remains positive. Persistent inflation concerns, geopolitical tensions, a softer U.S. dollar, central-bank reserve diversification by several emerging-market economies and robust retail demand in key Asian markets are supporting prices. From a technical perspective, $4,600 has become a critical support-turned-resistance level, with $4,650 and $4,700 representing the next major resistance areas. A sustained break above those levels could open the way to new highs, while a failure to hold $4,600 could trigger renewed selling or profit-taking. UOB said daily-chart readings suggest the market may be stretched and could consolidate or experience a modest pullback before another advance. An overbought reading, often associated with an RSI (Relative Strength Index, a momentum indicator) above 70, does not mean a decline is imminent but may make new long positions less attractive. Investors should assess technical signals alongside inflation data, central-bank decisions, geopolitical events, risk tolerance and portfolio needs.
