Gold pared gains on October 29 after Powell said a December rate cut was not a foregone conclusion, even though the Fed cut rates by a quarter point. Spot gold was up 0.3% at about $3,964 per ounce after reaching as high as 2% earlier in the session.
Gold is not in the feed symbol list, so the direct grain and meal impact is limited. The move reflects the broader shift in Fed expectations that also strengthens the dollar.
After 4,478 past macro events, US Dollar (Broad) moved a median +0.0% over 5 sessions (51% higher; middle half -0.4% to +0.5%), and +0.1% over 20.
