Gold tests $4,500 as US Dollar and yields retreat, Fed hike bets ease after Waller remarks

Gold (XAU/USD) extends its rebound on Thursday after slipping below $4,300 to a nearly four-week low on the previous day. A sharp rally in the Japanese Yen (JPY) weighs on the US Dollar (USD), while a pullback in US Treasury yields provides additional support to the precious metal.
