Gold bias flipped 22 times to neutral on August 27, 2026
Gold has pulled back after testing the $4,700 area, with traders awaiting US core PCE inflation data for direction. Interest in gold is being supported by de-dollarization trends and investor moves to hedge against dollar weakness, although higher US inflation has also strengthened the case for tighter Fed policy.
