Gold tops $4,400 an ounce ahead of July US CPI report
AI Market Summary
Gold rose above $4,400 into the US CPI release, with momentum reinforced by a break above the 100-day moving average and improved ETF inflows (notably in China). The market is balancing softer inflation expectations after a weak jobs report against renewed upside inflation risks from higher energy prices and a more hawkish Fed tone (Cleveland's Hammack citing potential for multiple hikes). Cross-asset correlations suggest shifting positioning rather than purely USD-driven moves.
