Gold futures are down 0.2% following the release of the July CPI, with the data causing traders to pare the downward move seen heading into this morning. The year-over-year move in consumer prices was less than forecast by economists, while core inflation at 3.1% was above forecasts.
The numbers have investors embracing a risk-on attitude, says XMArabia in a note. "The fact that inflation is unchanged… means that the odds are high for a rate cut and this is pushing the prices higher," says XMArabia.
