Gold edges down as markets assess Fed's rate outlook
  + stars: | 2023-09-25 | by ( ) www.cnbc.com   time to read: +2 min
Gold edged lower on Monday after eking out a narrow gain last week, as investors assessed the U.S. Federal Reserve officials' decision to flag further interest rate hikes ahead of a consumer inflation print later this week. Spot gold was down 0.1% at $1,922.76 per ounce by 0525 GMT, while U.S. gold futures fell 0.2% to $1,942.30. SPDR Gold Trust , the world's largest gold-backed ETF, said its holdings fell on Friday to their lowest level since Jan. 2020. U.S. business activity showed little change in September, a survey published Friday showed, while a separate survey showed the euro zone economy is likely to contract this quarter and won't return to growth anytime soon. The Bank of Japan maintained ultra-low interest rates on Friday and pledged to bring inflation sustainably to its 2% target.
