Investing.com– Gold prices moved little on Tuesday as the dollar arrested recent losses before key U.S. inflation data due later this week, while copper prices held on to recent gains on hopes that the worst had passed for China\u2019s economy.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Bullion prices found some relief in recent sessions as the retreated from a near six-month peak on some profit taking. But the greenback steadied in Asian trade on Tuesday, remaining within sight of recent highs.<\/p>\n

The outlook for U.S. inflation and interest rates remained high, pointing to more pressure on gold prices in the coming months. This trade had also battered gold through the past year, as rising interest rates pushed up the opportunity cost of investing in bullion.<\/p>\n

steadied at $1,922.61 an ounce, while expiring in December fell 0.1% to $1,945.35 an ounce by 00:54 ET (04:54 GMT).\u00a0<\/p>\n

U.S. CPI, Fed meeting awaited\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Focus is now squarely on a inflation reading for August, which is expected to show inflation growing at a faster pace than July. U.S. inflation is expected to have picked up amid higher fuel costs and resilient retail spending.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The reading is also expected to set the tone for a next week, with higher inflation giving the central bank more impetus to keep rates higher, or even hike them further this year.<\/p>\n

While the bank is widely expected to keep rates on hold in September, a stronger inflation reading could elicit a more hawkish outlook from the Fed. The central bank is also set to keep until at least mid-2024.<\/p>\n

Such a scenario presents a weak outlook for gold, given that the dollar and Treasury yields are likely to rise further in a high interest rate environment. Waning fears of a U.S. recession have also stymied safe haven demand for gold, although worsening trade tensions between the U.S. and China saw bullion catch some bids.\u00a0<\/p>\n

Copper rebound holds amid some China optimism\u00a0<\/h2>\n

Among industrial metals, copper prices rose further on Tuesday, taking continued support from positive economic readings on China.\u00a0<\/p>\n

rose 0.1% to $3.8057 a pound, after an over 1% rally in the prior session.<\/p>\n

Data released on Monday showed substantial improvement in Chinese through August, amid continued monetary support from the government.\u00a0<\/p>\n

The readings also came after data released over the weekend showed that recovered from deflationary territory in August. This ramped up hopes that China\u2019s economy was turning around after a severe slowdown this year.<\/p>\n

But markets still remained somewhat sour on the world\u2019s largest copper importer. A showed that China\u2019s economy is expected to grow 5% in 2023, in line with a conservative government forecast. Growth is also expected to slow further in 2024.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
