Tai Wong, a New York-based independent metals trader told Reuters that old surges above $2,400 as the friendly CPI number nearly cements a September rate cut. Gold bulls are likely to push for a new all-time high perhaps as soon as next week.
Now, the probability of a rate cut in September has surged to 85%, compared to 70% chance which was expected before the US inflation data. A rate cut is likely to make non-yielding assets like gold attractive.
