**[Analyst: Strengthened Dollar Rebound Suppresses Gold and Silver Trends, Downward Pressure May Persist]** BlockBeats News, February 5—Due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar, both gold and silver fell during the Asian trading session. FOREX global macro market analyst Fawad Razaqzada pointed out that a strong dollar often acts as a resistance to precious metals' performance. He stated: "If this dollar rebound is not just a flash in the pan, it could continue to exert pressure on gold prices." Razaqzada added that the market is currently shifting its focus to the delayed release of the U.S. official employment report. Due to the previous partial shutdown of the federal government, the January non-farm payroll report originally scheduled for Friday has now been postponed to February 11 (Wednesday). (Jin10)
