Gold falls in early Asian trade as U.S.-China trade deal optimism overcomes signs of cooler U.S. inflation. Treasury Secretary Bessent hailed trade talks between the U.S. and China in Malaysia as "constructive." The remarks are likely to diminish the safe-haven appeal of the precious metal.
Meanwhile, U.S. consumer prices rose by less-than-expected 3% on year in September. The inflation data is unlikely to influence the gold price, Commerzbank Research's Carsten Fritsch says in a research report. Rate expectations have recently played just a minor role in the development of gold prices, the commodity analyst adds. Spot gold is 0.8% lower at $4,078.36/oz.
