What’s moving gold today

Inflation / CPI
Data releases have published times, so the days most likely to move can be identified before the month starts.
Fed & interest rates
Many central banks move in the same direction as Washington, so one decision travels a long way beyond its own borders.
Bond yields
Short-dated yields describe policy and long-dated ones describe growth, and metal listens mainly to the far end.
Safe-haven demand
Nothing here is scheduled, which is the argument for leaving room in a plan rather than filling it.
US dollar
Currency releases have their own schedule, and the metal answers to a fair number of them each month.
