July 2023 gold market: Cooler inflation lifts gold

Bullish

A cooler CPI print sparked a brief relief rally.

Gold recovered toward $1,960 in July after a softer-than-expected US inflation report revived hopes that the Fed was nearly finished hiking. A weaker dollar added to the tailwind, though the rally proved short-lived.
