Gold prices held around $2,015 an ounce on Wednesday after jumping nearly 2% in the previous session, as growing recession fears and persistent concerns over the banking sector in the US weighed on the dollar, while lifting other safe-haven assets. Meanwhile, investors remain cautious ahead of the US Federal Reserve&rsquo s policy decision, where it is expected to deliver another 25 basis point rate hike. Data from the JOLTS showed that job openings in the US fell to a near two-year low during March, adding to recent evidence that higher borrowing costs have softened the labor market. Investors also fretted about the collapse of First Republic Bank and its subsequent takeover by JPMorgan, the second-largest bank failure in US history. Elsewhere, the European Central Bank is expected to tighten policy further this week as well, while the Reserve Bank of Australia unexpectedly raised its cash rate on Tuesday.
