Gold prices have rebounded, rising $68 (1.5%) to $4,629.50 an ounce after a significant drop earlier in the week. This increase follows a sharp pullback in crude oil prices, with Brent crude futures falling over 2.6% after reaching a four-year high of $126 a barrel. The decline in oil prices is attributed to profit-taking amid ongoing Middle East tensions. Additionally, gold has gained from a 0.8% drop in the U.S. dollar index.
