In addition, the rise of the dollar, after tough comments from the US Federal Reserve (Fed) officials also acted as a drag on gold prices. While the President of the Federal Reserve Bank of St. Louis, James Bullard said that the Fed may need to continue raising interest rates by half a point this year. Minneapolis Fed President Neel Kashkari thinks US interest rates may have to rise to 6%.

Gold price forecast: Carefully monitoring the "debt ceiling"
US Treasury Secretary Janet Yellen has reiterated that the US government could run out of money on June 1 if a new debt extension agreement is not reached. The clear progress in the US debt negotiations could cause some increased selling pressure on the gold market. Additionally, Fed officials' comments on monetary policy have generally remained hawkish rather than dovish. This is another bearish factor for the yellow metal.
Gold prices have fallen more than $100 from near-record highs reached earlier this month. However, solid US macroeconomic data pushed the dollar higher and eased expectations of a rate cut later in the year, dragging gold prices lower.
Currently, there are only 10 days left to the time when the possibility of a US government default may occur.
