On September 15, 2026, during the early Asian session on Tuesday, spot gold was trading around USD 4,290 per ounce. Gold fell to a more than one month low on Monday, mainly pressured by the rapid rise in oil prices and stronger than expected US inflation data. US CPI rose 0.4% month on month in August, significantly increasing market expectations for further tightening at the Federal Reserve’s policy meeting this week. A stronger US dollar and higher Treasury yields placed additional pressure on gold. At the same time, Saudi energy facilities and Gulf shipping routes came under successive attacks, while Brent crude briefly rose above USD 108, making energy supply risks an increasingly important factor for global inflation expectations.
Looking ahead, market attention will focus on the Federal Reserve’s policy decision this week and its assessment of inflation and energy prices. If oil prices remain elevated, persistent inflationary pressure could limit the room for a policy shift, leaving gold exposed to pressure from rate expectations and a stronger US dollar in the short term. However, developments in the Middle East and energy supply risks could continue to support safe haven assets, with markets likely to keep balancing inflationary pressure against safe haven demand.
