Gold Steadies Near $4,400 as Traders Weigh Fed Rate-Hike Path | Stock Market News
Gold held near $4,400 an ounce as traders waited for US inflation data this week. That data will hint whether the Federal Reserve raises interest rates at its September 14-15 meeting, with swaps pricing roughly a 65% chance of a hike. Brent crude hitting $100 has added to inflation worry. The metal has stayed in a narrow range, so there is no clear direction yet.
Key Statutory Highlights
- Spot gold was steady at $4,400.32 an ounce in Singapore, after adding 1% in the previous session to snap a three-day losing streak.
- Investors are watching the US producer price index and consumer price index this week for clues on whether the Federal Reserve will hike rates.
- Swaps traders are currently pricing in a roughly 65% chance of a rate hike ahead of the central bank's meeting on September 14-15.
Actionable Advice for Taxpayers / Founders:If you hold gold or plan to buy, wait for this week's US inflation figures and the Fed meeting on September 14-15 before making large purchases, since prices may stay range-bound until the rate picture becomes clearer.
