Gold prices have moved in the opposite direction of CPM Group’s last trade recommendation released on 27 October. CPM Group recommends closing out any long positions and standing aside until there is a clearer view of market sentiment after this week’s Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting. Gold prices are likely to consolidate around $1,640 ahead of the FOMC meeting that concludes on 2 November.
A clearer price direction is likely post that meeting. The Fed is expected to increase interest rates by another 75 basis points at its November meeting. Markets will be looking for clues on what the Fed will do at its December and January meetings: Whether the Fed will keep at the current pace of tightening or slowdown its rate of tightening interest rates. The latter is more likely.
What is most important is how markets interprets any comments about a moderation in tightening interest rates. all markets have a tendency to over-react and any talk of moderation could be interpreted as a loosening or pivoting in monetary policy. This could create a short-term bounce higher in gold prices post the FOMC meeting.
