US Session Analysis for CFD Instruments 31/08/2023
Fundamental analysis
31 August, 2023
XAU/USD is currently trading at 1,944.00 whilst Gold Futures are trading at 1,970. Gold Price (XAU/USD) holds steady at the highest level in four weeks during a four-day winning streak as market players await the key inflation clues from the US and Eurozone. That said, the recently downbeat US data have raised concerns about the Federal Reserve’s (Fed) policy pivot and bolstered the XAU/USD price. On the same line could be the hopes of witnessing more stimulus from the key customer China. However, the cautious mood ahead of the top-tier data and mixed activity numbers from China prod the Gold buyers hopeful. Major attention will be given to the US Core Personal Consumption Expenditure (PCE) Price Index for August, expected to remain unchanged at 0.2% MoM but edge higher to 4.2% YoY from 4.1% prior. Should the US inflation gauge ease, the Gold buyers will seek softer clues from the Nonfarm Payrolls (NFP) to confirm an end to the Fed’s hawkish cycle, which in turn can propel the XAU/USD price.
