Gold edges lower as markets await Fed Chair Kevin Warsh’s Jackson Hole remarks
AI Market Summary
Gold softened as investors awaited Fed Chair remarks at Jackson Hole, with US inflation data keeping the rate path uncertain. July PCE at 3.7% (slightly above expectations) complicates easing narratives, while FedWatch pricing reduced September hike odds but still implies meaningful risk of a December move. A firmer rupee added pressure to India prices, reinforcing near-term sensitivity to USD rates and real yields.
