“COMEX Gold prices plunged more than 1% at the start of the week, as investors weighed hawkish Fed comments and rise in inflation expectations. The Fed’s Bank of Dallas President Lorie Logan said last week it’s still too early to think about reducing interest rates, while Fed Governor Michelle Bowman said she doesn’t expect it will be appropriate for the Fed to cut rates in 2024. Now investor focus is on US PPI and CPI due today and tomorrow respectively for more cues on Fed policy trajectory. Fed chair Jerome Powell’s speech later today can also be closely watched,” said Kaynat Chainwala, Senior Manager of Commodities Research, Kotak Securities.
Gold is regarded as a reliable hedge against inflation, and for good reason! This reputation stems from its tendency to either maintain or increase in value during periods of inflationary pressure. In fact, this very quality makes gold an attractive option for investors looking to safeguard their wealth from inflation’s detrimental effects.
The fall in gold rate has been attributed to weak global cues, a hawkish Fed stance, and the expected rise in inflation.
