Reuters reported that China's military and
Gold repriced as soon as labor-market softness and central-bank commentary converged into the same transmission channel: lower expected policy restraint, lower real-yield pressure, and a weaker opportunity-cost regime for holding non-yielding reserve assets. Reuters reporting framed the immediate trigger as softer-than-expected ADP private
