Gold Prices Dip in Anticipation of Pivotal U.S. Inflation Report Gold prices saw a slight decline as investors and traders turned their attention to the upcoming U.S. inflation data, expected to be released this week. This data is significant as it could potentially affect the Federal Reserve’s decisions on interest rate cuts. Spot gold fell by 0.5% to $2,025.91 an ounce, while U.S. gold futures experienced a 0.6% drop to $2,036.60. The focus is particularly on the U.S. personal consumption expenditure (PCE) price index, the Federal Reserve’s preferred inflation measure, which is anticipated to show a 0.4% monthly increase. Analysts suggest that higher-than-expected PCE data might exert downward pressure on metal prices, though gold is expected to stay above the $2,000 mark unless the economic data released this week is exceptionally high. « Previous Article Next Article » Share This Article Choose Your Platform: Facebook Twitter Google Plus Linkedin Related Posts Gold Standard Could Be the Key to Ending Price Volatility, Fed Study Suggests READ MORE JPMorgan Bullish on Gold: $2,500/oz Target READ MORE Virtual Gold Rush: How RuneScape Became Venezuela's Economic Lifeline READ MORE Central Banks Tread Cautiously in Final Stretch of Inflation Battle READ MORE Precious Metal Continue Climbing on Expectations of Rate Reduction READ MORE Add a Comment Cancel replyYour email address will not be published.
