what did the fed say wednesday?<\/h2>\n

Following its Wednesday meeting<\/u>, the Federal Reserve said the economy is \u201cexpanding at a solid pace despite elevated uncertainty,\u201d pointing to the war in Iran. The Fed, in announcing the unanimous decision to hold interest rates steady, cited strong productivity and job growth, as well as minor changes in the unemployment rate. \u201cInflation remains elevated relative to the committee\u2019s 2% goal,\u201d the Fed\u2019s note says, citing supply constraints and price surges in the energy sector.<\/p>\n

How Will A Higher Interest Rate Impact Metals?<\/h2>\n

Should the Fed raise interest rates later this year, gold and silver prices will probably decline, analysts say. \u201cIn our world interest rates are like gravity,\u201d Philippe Gijsels, chief strategy officer at BNP Paribas Fortis, told CNBC<\/u>. \u201cWhen interest rates rise, gravity increases and all assets are pulled down, including precious metals.\u201d Even the prospect of higher interest rates has held metals prices down in recent weeks. Analysts at Germany\u2019s Commerzbank<\/u> said earlier this month as long as \u201cexpectations of interest rate hikes prevail,\u201d gold prices are likely to stay down.<\/p>\n

What Has Kevin Warsh Said About Interest Rates?<\/h2>\n

Warsh<\/u> told the Senate Banking Committee in April that Trump did not \u201cdemand\u201d he cut interest rates, and he said he would not agree to Trump demanding any particular interest rate. Trump, who long advocated for previous Fed chair Jerome Powell to cut rates, said<\/u> last week Warsh should \u201cdo whatever he wants\u201d but said there\u2019s \u201cno reason to raise interest rates.\u201d<\/p>\n

key background<\/h2>\n

After a historic rally that carried gold prices to $5,600 and silver to $120 in January, prices came crashing down after Trump nominated Warsh as Fed chair, as he was not considered likely to cut interest rates. Metals prices have generally declined throughout the war in Iran as gold and silver have traded inversely with oil, which has surged throughout the conflict. Gold and silver hit two-month lows<\/u> last week amid expectations of future rate hikes and uncertainty over the war in Iran. <\/p>\n
