Gold price slides further below $3,300, over one-week low amid a firmer USD

The growing acceptance that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will keep interest rates steady for an extended period amid expectations that steep US tariffs would underpin inflation in the coming months had been a key factor behind the recent rise in the US Treasury bond yields.
