Gold is testing support at $2,300 an ounce as the US labor market remains "hot".

Nonfarm payrolls increased by 303,000 jobs last month, according to the US Bureau of Labor Statistics. The unemployment rate fell to 3.8%.

The jobs report fell on the back of monetary policy hawks who want to see the Federal Reserve hold off on cutting interest rates. Gold prices are sensitive to US interest rate moves.

The US Dollar Index (DXY) rose after the better jobs report. The US Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the greenback's performance against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF), rose 0.475% to 104.61 points.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year US Treasury note is at 4.37%.

Central bank gold buying remains robust, driven by emerging economies diversifying their reserves and rising geopolitical tensions, according to Goldman Sachs.

Gold Price Forecast

In an interview with Kitco News, Julia Khandoshko, CEO of brokerage Mind Money, said that the rise in gold prices to record highs does not depend on the timing of the Fed's interest rate cut but mainly on the general direction of monetary policy.

While she does not expect the Fed to cut rates in June, she sees two rate cuts later this year and further easing in 2025, which is positive for gold.

In addition, the recovery of the gold market is also supported by the economic and geopolitical situation and government debt.

Khandoshko believes that gold price reaching 3,000 USD/ounce is just a matter of time.
