Gold bias flipped 22 times to neutral on October 13, 2026
Gold has been reacting to moves in U.S. yields, the dollar and oil prices, slipping when yields and the dollar rose and steadying when they eased, with a bounce around $4,150 keeping it within a two-week range. Market focus remains on upcoming U.S. CPI data, while record gold imports by China, ETF flows and shifts in geopolitical tensions are also part of the discussion around prices.
