Gold steadies near $4,150 as investors eye U.S. economic data ahead of Fed meeting

Gold prices recovered to around $4,150 an ounce after earlier pressure from strong U.S. inflation data and a firm dollar. Investors are closely watching upcoming U.S. housing, employment, and business activity reports for clues on economic health and Federal Reserve interest rate decisions. Key data includes housing starts, jobless claims, PMI, and consumer sentiment, which could influence whether the Fed pauses or hikes rates in October. These reports will impact gold's direction amid ongoing inflation concerns and market volatility.

Gold's upcoming direction tied to U.S. housing, PMI, and consumer sentiment data offers context for market watchers. For readers following the broader market, here is Pluang's snapshot as of Oct 17, 2026 02:41 WIB: out of 150 priced US stocks tradable on Pluang, 45 rose and 104 fell. Notable movers include NVAX at USD 11.22 with a 1-day change of -12.48%, LCID at USD 3.15 down 10.14%, and OPEN at USD 2.10 down 9.48%, with varied Pluang order activity and typical hold times ranging from 33 to 59 days.
