🟡Gold’s Tariff Pause Before CPI
After soaring past $3,530/oz last week, gold has cooled - Spot down 0.7% and December Futures down 1.5% in early Monday trade.
A U.S. ruling to impose import tariffs on standard 1kg and 100oz bullion bars shook supply chains, with some Swiss refiners halting shipments to the U.S. The White House has promised clarity on the policy, but traders remain cautious.
Now, attention shifts to Tuesday’s U.S. CPI - forecast at +0.2% - a key signal for September’s Fed decision. Rate cut odds are hovering near 89%. Meanwhile, the U.S.-China tariff truce expires Aug 12, adding another layer of uncertainty.
💬 What’s your XAUUSD call - breakout or fade?

⚜️Gold won’t face U.S. tariffs - President Trump confirmed it in a short but market-shaking statement: "Gold will not be Tariffed!"
The decision ends speculation that had threatened to disrupt global bullion flows, especially from refining hub Switzerland.
But in a twist, gold prices fell after the announcement:
📉 U.S. gold futures -2.4% → $3,407
📉 Spot gold -1.2% → $3,357
Will XAUUSD bounce back now that the tariff threat is gone, or will traders keep taking profits?

🛑 Stop: 1.1392
BofA says any soft U.S. data between now and September could accelerate rate cuts — a bullish setup for the euro.
