Spot gold
Gold prices were little changed as market participants assessed the timing of a potential US interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve and looked for fresh signals for further clarity on monetary policy. Spot gold was almost steady at $2,315.98 an ounce. US gold futures were flat at $2,322.80. “The Fed is concerned about inflation, but is not going to raise rates any further and still wants to cut if it gets the chance – that’s the story. “There won’t be much to the story until we get CPI next week,” said Ilya Spivak, head of global macro at TastyLive, as reported by Reuters.
