Gold price forecast

World gold prices fell slightly in the context of the USD index's recovery trend. Recorded at 6:00 p.m. on September 12, the US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback's fluctuations against six major currencies, was at 101.677 points (up 0.2%).

Gold futures fell as inflation data changed expectations of a US Federal Reserve (FED) interest rate cut, according to Kitco.

The catalyst for this change in sentiment was the recently released Consumer Price Index (CPI) report from the U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics. The report showed that inflation rose 2.5% year-on-year in August, slightly below the 2.6% consensus estimate forecast by MarketWatch. This marked a deceleration from July’s 2.9% annual rate, suggesting that inflationary pressures are easing.

However, the core CPI, which excludes volatile food and energy prices and is the Fed's preferred inflation measure, remained steady at 3.2% for the second straight month. This persistence in core inflation has led to a reassessment of expectations for the upcoming Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting.

The CME FedWatch tool, a gauge of market sentiment, reflected a significant shift in expectations following the CPI report. While the Fed still sees a rate cut as a certainty, the likelihood of a 50 basis point cut has diminished significantly.

There is now just a 15% chance of a 50 basis point cut, down from 34% yesterday and 44% a week ago. This adjustment suggests that market participants are now leaning towards a smaller 25 basis point rate cut at next week's FOMC meeting.
