XAU commentary

This is a dated account of a macroeconomic reaction. It is useful for comparing the inflation and rate-expectations channels, not for choosing a current entry price.

What remains uncertain

The report is not a transaction-cost study. It does not establish spreads, slippage or a causal effect on execution.

What to watch next

For a comparable episode, align the release time, gold quote and yields; separate what was known before the release from the later reaction.
