On June 23, Zijin Gold International fell 3.27% in regular trading, trading at HK$102.3/share, with turnover of approximately HK$34.58 million.
On the news front, the gold sector remains under heavy pressure from multiple headwinds. Goldman Sachs cut its year-end gold price forecast by $500/oz to $4,900/oz, citing expectations that the Fed will not cut rates this year. Meanwhile, new Fed Chair Waller's inaugural FOMC meeting delivered the clearest hawkish signal yet, with nine officials projecting at least one rate hike this year. The December rate hike probability has risen to 72%, pushing the USD index above 100 and keeping Treasury yields elevated, which continues to suppress the valuation of non-yielding gold. Spot gold has broken below the $4,200 mark, retreating over 20% from its annual high.
Across the gold sector, declines were broad-based. Chifeng Gold fell 4.14%, Zijin Mining fell 3.8%, SD Gold fell 2.53%, Lingbao Gold fell 2.31%, and Zhaojin Mining fell 0.95%.
