Precious metals are experiencing a downturn, with gold falling 2%. This decline is attributed to fears of rate hikes and a strengthening US dollar, which has reached a one-year high.

Coverage from Reuters, CNBC, KITCO, Bloomberg, and Yahoo Finance emphasizes a tension between these economic pressures and geopolitical developments. While rate-hike risks cap the metals' growth, reports indicate gold is stabilizing or steadying due to ongoing negotiations between the US and Iran.

Future movements depend on the progress of peace talks between the US and Iran and the evolving risk of Federal Reserve rate hikes.
