The Fed enters this week's policy meeting as inflation rises again, with markets still expecting rates to be held just days before the U.S. midterm elections. Former Fed Vice Chair Alan Blinder expects a 'hawkish pause,' holding rates while signaling readiness to hike again, possibly as soon as the next meeting. U.S. CPI rose 3.7% year on year in September, core CPI rose 2.6%, and wholesale prices rose more than 6%. Harvard's Ken Rogoff also expects no change, while Cleveland Fed President Beth Hammack backs a gradual hike now to contain spreading price pressure. Policy rates currently sit at 3.75%-4%, and markets price nearly 70% odds of a 0.25 percentage point hike in December.

- Gold Falls Below $4 , 150 Ahead of Federal Reserve Policy Meeting
Gold slipped below $4,150 per troy ounce on Monday after an early rise, as US inflation data and Federal Reserve projections kept the rate outlook in focus. The US consumer price index rose 0.6% in September from August and 3.7% from a year earlier, with gasoline supplying more than half the monthly increase, while the dollar strengthened. The Fed raised its target range to 3.75% to 4% on Sept. 16, and 12 of 18 policymakers projected a year-end midpoint of 4.125%, though those projections do not commit it to another hike. Gold pays no interest, so higher yields and the dollar partly explain its 8.5% drop in September, according to the World Gold Council.
- Gold gains on softer dollar , but heads for weekly fall - The HinduBusinessLine
Spot gold rose 0.2% to $4,177.82 an ounce as the dollar weakened, but it was still down 0.5% on the week as investors weighed Fed rate signals. OANDA analyst Kelvin Wong said gold has been trapped in a range with its bottom at $4,075, and hotter-than-expected September core CPI and PPI data show inflation broadening. The dollar was heading for its first weekly fall in five weeks, while traders priced in an 89% chance of a December rate hike per CME's FedWatch Tool. Higher rates reduce gold's appeal, and several large Indian mutual funds suspended bulk subscriptions to gold ETFs ahead of the festive season. Silver, platinum and palladium also rose on the day but were all headed for weekly losses.
- Gold Holds Loss as Hot Inflation Lifts October Rate-Hike Bets
Gold held its losses after a jump in U.S. inflation revived concerns that the Federal Reserve may need to raise rates further. Bullion traded near $4,105 an ounce after slumping 1.3% the previous day, while silver kept a 6% loss, as September CPI rose 0.6% month-on-month, the fastest pace since April, on elevated energy costs. Investors raised their bets on a Fed hike at the October 27–28 meeting to about 30%, with Treasury yields near multiyear highs and the dollar at its strongest in more than a year. Chicago Fed President Austan Goolsbee called the data “discouraging” and warned that AI infrastructure spending could overheat the economy. Spot gold was little changed at $4,102.60 in early Asian trading, and investors are awaiting final policy guidance from Fed Chair Kevin Warsh before the media blackout begins.
- Gold ETFs to Watch Amid Fed Rate Hike & Oil Risks
Gold prices have come under pressure this year from a stronger U.S. dollar and the Fed's hawkish stance, after the Fed delivered its first rate hike of the year in September and expectations point to another hike this year. Renewed attacks on vessels in the Strait of Hormuz have pushed oil higher, raising inflation worries and the chance the Fed stays restrictive, while also potentially boosting safe-haven demand for gold. New York Fed president John Williams said another hike may be appropriate this year but further tightening may not be needed in 2027, an outlook that could limit near-term gains but support gold over the longer term. The article says investors should watch whether inflation risks translate into higher rate expectations rather than assume oil will automatically lift bullion, before introducing a list of gold ETFs.
- Gold may trade up to USD 5 , 000 / oz over next two years as central banks sustain demand : Report
NDB Wealth Management expects gold to trade between US$4,200 and US$5,000 an ounce over the next 12–24 months, a base case it assigns a 50% probability, as central bank purchases and Asian investor demand increasingly drive prices rather than US interest rate moves. Gold was trading at US$4,118.91 an ounce, down 0.14%, though it has kept gaining despite higher US rates, persistent inflation and a firmer dollar. Central banks bought 289 tonnes in the second quarter of 2026, while Asian gold funds saw net inflows of nearly 70 tonnes in the first half, their strongest first half on record, even as North American funds recorded outflows of about 61 tonnes. The World Gold Council projects around 850 tonnes of central bank buying in 2026, and mine output is forecast to rise only 2.4% to 3,907 tonnes. A lasting peace in the Gulf, easing inflation or a pause in US rate hikes could push prices lower, while concerns over US fiscal health and Fed independence could lift them further.
- Gold may trade up to USD 5 , 000 / oz over next two years as central banks sustain demand : Report
A report by NDB Wealth Management says gold could stay between USD 4,200 and USD 5,000 per ounce over the next 12–24 months, as central bank purchases and strong Asian investor demand increasingly drive prices rather than US interest rate moves. At the time of filing, gold traded at USD 4,118.91 per ounce, down USD 5.82 or 0.14 per cent. Central banks bought 289 tonnes in the second quarter of 2026, while Asian gold funds saw net inflows of nearly 70 tonnes in the first half, a record for that period, and North American gold funds recorded outflows of around 61 tonnes. Supply is limited, with global mine output forecast to rise just 2.4 per cent to 3,907 tonnes in 2026. The base case, given a 50 per cent probability, sees prices between USD 4,200 and USD 5,000, while lasting peace in the Gulf, easing inflation or a pause in US rate hikes could push prices lower, and concerns over US government finances or Fed independence could drive further gains.

- Tesla Rises 6% as Barclays Upgrade Cites SpaceX Merger Potential; Lucid Drops 4%, Rivian Slips
Tesla (TSLA) shares rose 6% to $394.72 after Barclays upgraded the stock to Overweight from Equal Weight and set a price target of $450.

- Anthropic Makes IPO Filing Public, Plans Nasdaq Listing Under ‘ANT’
Anthropic has filed for an IPO, planning to list its Class A shares on Nasdaq under the ticker “ANT”, with Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley leading 24 underwriters. For the first half of 2026, revenue reached 16.29 billion USD (versus 1.16 billion USD a year earlier), but the company posted a net loss of 80.7 billion USD, mainly due to a 72.4 billion USD charge tied to fair value changes in convertible notes and other instruments. A trust will elect a majority of the board, while an entity owned by its seven co-founders will hold 50.1% of voting power; the filing warns this structure may effectively eliminate Class A holders’ ability to influence key decisions. The company previously raised 65 billion USD in May at a 965 billion USD valuation, and the number of shares and price range have not yet been set.
