World gold price this afternoon

The world gold price increases when the USD tends to fall. Experiencing a number of declines, last night the gold price recorded an impressive increase, close to 2,700 USD/ounce. Gold prices increased sharply due to receiving momentum after the new US inflation report showed that the increase was not too hot.

On the other hand, the world gold price increased significantly in the ongoing trading session after the US announced the Consumer Price Index (CPI) in December 2024. Accordingly, the core CPI (removement of volatile food and gas costs) last December in the US increased by 0.2% compared to the previous month, slowing down from the increase of 0.3% in November of the same year.

Year-on-year, CPI of the world’s largest economy increased by 3.2% compared to the same period in 2023. Previously, the basic US CPI had maintained an annual increase of 3.3% for the previous 4 months.

CPI is an important indicator that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) often relies on to adjust monetary policy. As expected, the periodic meeting to review to decide the Fed’s next interest rate will take place at the end of this month.
