Gold bias flipped 20 times to neutral on September 14, 2026
Gold started the week lower and has traded around $4,300 as traders await the Fed verdict. Hotter U.S. inflation and oil-related price pressures have lifted bets on Fed rate hikes and hawkish central bank action, with a firmer U.S. dollar and higher U.S. yields cited as capping upside. Coverage also points to CTA liquidation activity and debate over the weekly long trend as gold tests critical thresholds.
