On the morning of October 20, domestic gold prices rebounded after a sharp early drop: SJC, PNJ, DOJI and Bảo Tín Minh Châu gold bars rose back by 600,000 VND per tael to 139.6–142.6 million VND, but remained 500,000 VND below early-morning levels. PNJ’s 9999 gold rings rose 500,000 VND to 138.5–141.5 million VND, while SJC held at 138.2–141.2 million VND. In international markets, spot gold fell back to 4,132 USD per ounce after the US dollar strengthened and US Treasury yields rose in the 19 October session. Investors remain focused on persistent inflation and the Federal Reserve’s rate outlook, while tensions around the Strait of Hormuz have limited selling pressure.

- 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.
- Inflation next wave could be building as energy costs spread through economy
Producer prices rose 1.3% from August to September and 6.3% from a year earlier, the fastest wholesale inflation rate since 2022, driven mainly by higher fuel costs. Transportation and warehousing prices jumped 3.4% in September and are 16% higher than last year, while core consumer prices rose 2.6% year over year and 0.3% month to month, signaling that price pressures are spreading beyond energy. Diesel averaged $6.32 a gallon, compared with $3.64 a year earlier, as high energy prices linked to the war with Iran drove renewed inflation. The buildout of AI data centers is also pushing up costs for chips, computer parts and electrical components. Businesses may soon pass these costs to consumers, and markets widely expect the Federal Reserve, which has already raised rates, to hike again this year, though the timing is uncertain.
- Domestic gold bar prices fall to lowest in over two months
On the morning of October 20, SJC quoted gold bars at 139–142 million VND per tael, down 1.1 million VND from the previous close and the lowest since August 5, with other brands adjusting similarly. World gold closed October 19 down over $24 at $4,139 an ounce and was at $4,135 that morning, about 130 million VND per tael, leaving domestic prices more than 12 million VND above international levels. The decline reflects investors awaiting signals from the Fed's meeting next week, amid a stronger US dollar and higher US Treasury yields. Under Decree 390, from October 16, daily gold purchases and sales of 5 million VND or more must be settled without cash, down from the previous 20 million VND threshold.
- Will the Fed Raise Rates This Month? Here's What Markets Say.
The latest CPI report showed September inflation came in hotter than expected: headline CPI rose 3.7% year over year and 0.6% from August, while core CPI rose 2.6% year over year and 0.3% monthly. This suggests the Fed could hike for a second straight time at its Oct. 27-28 meeting. However, futures traders price an 85.1% chance the Fed holds its rate at 3.75% to 4% in October and a 74.1% chance it resumes hiking in early December. The two-year Treasury yield has eased to 4.73% from 4.93% in September, signaling lower expectations for hikes, though it remains above the current rate. The author notes that stocks tend to perform better when the Fed moves slowly, and sees new Fed Chair Kevin Warsh, in the role since May, as an incrementalist.
- Gold Edges Up As Oil Prices , Yields Dip
Spot gold rose 0.2% to $4,171.62 an ounce and U.S. gold futures gained 0.2% to $4,190.15, as market expectations for a Federal Reserve interest rate hike in October diminished. The dollar held firm while the euro weakened after nationwide protests in France over living costs turned violent. Treasury yields fell after Fed Chair Kevin Warsh expressed optimism about U.S. economic resilience and AI's impact on growth and productivity.
- Gold Prices Rise Above $4,200 in Futures Trading as Fed Rate Hike Expectations Ease
Gold rose above $4,200 an ounce in US futures on Monday as traders scaled back expectations of another Federal Reserve rate hike after comments from Chair Kevin Warsh. Spot gold gained 0.4% to $4,180.29, while US gold futures rose 0.5% to $4,200.92. The implied probability of a 25-basis-point hike at the next meeting fell below 20%, after US inflation data released the previous week exceeded expectations. Silver, platinum and palladium also gained, while the US Dollar Index was roughly flat at 101.80. ANZ maintains a positive long-term view and expects gold to rise above $5,000 an ounce during 2027, though elevated bond yields and a strong dollar could pressure prices in the near term.

- An AI bust could come from places investors arent watching , an economist says
Concerns about an AI bubble are growing, and TS Lombard's Dario Perkins warns that investors may be overlooking other risks. Debt among smaller cloud providers, model developers and suppliers could reach $2 trillion by the end of 2027. Perkins does not see this as a systemic risk, but warns that earnings disappointments and canceled orders could ripple through the ecosystem, and that a chip glut could follow over-ordering. Much of the industry's revenue growth still comes from spending within the AI ecosystem rather than from businesses and consumers outside it. He also flags political backlash, noting that ordinary people dislike AI and nearby datacenters, and warns that one high-profile accident could turn AI toxic.
- Yen jumps after JGB auction draws big demand , euro finds relief
The yen rose 0.2% to 158.15 per dollar in Asian trading after a 20-year Japanese government bond auction drew bids of 5.84 times the amount sold, well above the 4.01 times at the previous auction, and the yield fell 6 basis points to 3.71%. A State Street strategist said the record demand suggests sidelined cash is returning and that JGBs are becoming a relative haven from political and fiscal volatility in Europe, particularly France. Anti-government protests in France prompted curfews in several cities, while Italy said it would send 500 troops after two days of unrest, and the euro rallied 0.2% to $1.1234. Elsewhere, bitcoin slipped 0.3% to $81,674.25 and ether edged down 0.2% to $2,393.21.
- Unemployment rate dips to 4 . 7 % - but vacancies hit five - year low
Vacancies fell by 21,000 to 691,000 in the three months to September, the biggest drop since the three months to March and the lowest since July to September 2014 outside the pandemic, while unemployment dipped in the three months to August. Payroll numbers were down 66,000 over the year to September. The ONS said the fall was mainly among smaller firms struggling with higher labour costs, following rises in employer national insurance, the minimum wage and workers' rights. A CBI survey found labour costs and regulations were making it harder to create jobs, and firms urged the Chancellor not to add to their burden in the October 28 Budget. ICAEW's Suren Thiru said the labour market is 'running on idle' and unemployment could climb above 5 per cent, while Shadow Chancellor Andrew Griffith blamed Labour's 'Jobs Tax' and red tape.
- CNBC Daily Open: Tech rebounds in the U.S., but Asia isn’t buying it yet
U.S. tech stocks rebounded as the Nasdaq Composite rose more than 1% on Monday, with Nvidia up 1.4% and Tesla up 3.8%. In Asia, however, tech shares fell on Tuesday, with South Korea's Kospi down over 4% and Japan's Nikkei 225 down 1.6%. Nvidia also unveiled plans to back four German AI startups as part of its nearly $10 billion European investment commitment. Jenny Lee of Granite Asia said Asian companies are reaching IPOs much sooner, often at four to five years old, while Jio Platforms' Indian IPO saw its anchor investor quota oversubscribed more than 30 times, aiming to raise up to 302 billion rupees ($3.2 billion). In Singapore, several agricultural stocks fell after Senior Minister K Shanmugam warned that companies would not escape responsibility for possible roles in the haze, noting seven firms had been questioned by the Singapore Exchange.
- NiSource (NI) Stock Looks Overvalued Against Its Dividend Outlook
NiSource has nearly doubled shareholders' money over the past five years, delivering a 97.6% total return, which raises the question of whether dividends can justify the current share price. The article highlights a new 20-year energy agreement with Microsoft, including customer-funded grid upgrades and long-term electric service for data centers, which may affect future capital needs and cash-flow visibility. Using a Dividend Discount Model with inputs of about $1.35 dividend per share, roughly 9.07% return on equity, a payout ratio slightly above 61%, and implied dividend growth of about 3.5%, the estimated intrinsic value sits meaningfully below the current share price of $41.95. The model still does not bridge that gap, suggesting income investors are paying a premium for a relatively steady payout with modest assumed growth.
