Gold prices remain stable above important near-term support levels even as the US manufacturing sector shows unexpected resilience, according to the Philadelphia Fed's September survey. The manufacturing index came in at 37.8, higher than the anticipated 31.3, indicating ongoing regional manufacturing growth. Despite this positive economic data, gold continues to recover from a recent selloff following the Federal Reserve's 25 basis point rate hike and signals that inflation control efforts will continue. Spot gold traded up over 2% on the day, reflecting cautious optimism in the market.
