Gold News, 10 November 2026: 7 stories moving XAUUSD

Spot gold gave back part of Monday’s 1% gain in Asian trade as traders took profits before the October CPI report at 13:30 GMT. Trump’s pause on new Iran strikes pulled oil and the dollar lower, Treasury yields edged up, a Fed official urged care, and gold ETFs saw a fourth straight day of outflows.

Gold eases from Monday's rally as CPI day arrives with December hike odds near 84%

Price

Spot gold slips 0.6% to about $4,115 as traders take profits before CPI

Spot gold fell 0.6% to $4,115.12 an ounce by 02:38 GMT on Tuesday, after rising more than 1% on Monday, Reuters reported. US gold futures for December delivery were up 0.2% at $4,123.90, spot silver lost 0.6% to $53.04 and platinum eased 0.3% to $1,571.70. Kyle Rodda of Capital.com called the move “a bit of churn”, and said gold would benefit if the US avoided a wider Middle East conflict and oil kept falling.

Why it matters for gold:

A small dip after a strong day before a big data release is often just traders cutting risk, not a change of trend. The CPI result is what decides the next move. The chart of the day walks through the last few sessions bar by bar, and the gold cheat sheet has this week’s pivots and typical range.

Inflation

October CPI is out today at 13:30 GMT, with headline prices seen up 0.3% on the month

Economists polled by Dow Jones expect the October consumer price index to rise 0.3% from September and core prices, which leave out food and energy, to rise 0.2%, CNBC reported. The report is due at 8:30 am New York time on Tuesday, which is 13:30 GMT and 19:00 IST, and October producer prices follow on Friday. October payrolls rose 165,000 against 59,000 expected, which is why markets now watch inflation so closely.

Why it matters for gold:

A hot core number would support the case for a December hike, which usually lifts the dollar and yields and weighs on gold; a soft one does the opposite. Spreads can widen sharply in the minutes around the release. Release times in your zone and past gold reactions are on the CPI event page and in CPI time today.

Fed

Fed's Barkin says policy should move "with care" as hike odds reach 84%

Richmond Fed President Tom Barkin said on Monday that the Fed should adjust policy with care as it responds to inflation, which he sees as the biggest risk, and that he has no base case for the December meeting, Reuters reported. CME FedWatch data showed traders pricing an 84% chance of a December rate hike. Investing.com put the market-implied chance of a 25 basis point hike at 85%.

Why it matters for gold:

With a hike mostly priced in, gold’s reaction to Fed news depends on surprises, not on the hike itself. A Fed official without a base case means the data, starting with today’s CPI, will steer December. The FOMC rate decision page shows how gold moved on recent Fed days.

Geopolitics

WTI drops 4.38% to $86.85 after Trump calls new Iran strikes "highly unlikely"

December WTI crude fell 4.38% to $86.85 a barrel on Monday after President Trump said fresh attacks on Iran were highly unlikely while talks continue, CNBC reported. Reuters added that Trump plans to hold off on new strikes for now after appeals from countries in the region, including Qatar’s prime minister during talks at the White House, and that oil edged lower again in Asia on Tuesday.

Why it matters for gold:

Cheaper oil lowers the risk of another energy-driven inflation shock, which can cool hike bets and help gold, but it also takes away some of the war-risk demand for safe havens. Watching gold, oil and the dollar together makes these cross-currents easier to see on the markets board.

Dollar

Dollar index steadies near 101.67 after a 0.6% drop, while the yen holds near 158

The US dollar index was flat at 101.673 at 04:07 GMT on Tuesday after falling 0.6% on Monday, when risk assets recovered on Trump’s Iran comments and lower oil, Investing.com reported. The yen held near 158 per dollar, supported by the threat of more intervention from Japanese officials, although expectations of a Bank of Japan hike in December have weakened. China’s October exports rose 35.2% from a year earlier and imports 41.6%.

Why it matters for gold:

Gold is priced in dollars, so a softer dollar makes it cheaper for buyers using other currencies. A firm dollar after a hot CPI would be the main headwind today. The gold strength meter shows how gold is moving in nine currencies, not only in dollars.

Yields

Treasury yields edge up before CPI; Goldman sees the 10-year settling between 4.75% and 5%

The 2-year Treasury yield rose more than 3 basis points to 4.561% on Monday and the 10-year added about 1 basis point to 4.876%, CNBC reported. In a separate note, Goldman Sachs strategists led by William Marshall said the pieces are in place for yields to settle into a range, with the 10-year between 4.75% and 5.0% if risk assets stabilise. They noted that the MOVE index of Treasury volatility is around 93, down from above 113 in early October.

Why it matters for gold:

Higher yields raise the return on bonds, which compete with gold because gold pays no interest. Calmer bond markets usually mean calmer gold too, but a CPI surprise can break that quickly. The gold events hub shows how gold behaved on past release days.

ETFs

Gold ETFs see a fourth straight session of outflows, but holdings are still up 1.9% this year

Gold-backed ETFs shed 34,200 troy ounces, worth about $138.9 million, in their fourth day of outflows in a row, leaving total holdings at 100.8 million ounces, the lowest since 25 September, according to Bloomberg data cited by Frank Holmes of U.S. Global Investors on Kitco. Holdings are still up 1.9% year to date. The same note cites World Gold Council figures showing central banks bought 675 tonnes in the first nine months, 6% more than a year earlier.

Why it matters for gold:

A few days of ETF selling show that some investors are cutting gold before the Fed, while central banks keep buying in the background. Flows matter more over weeks than days. Our guide on how to read gold ETF flows explains what the numbers can and cannot tell a trader.
