US September PCE Inflation Rises to 3.6%, Gold Drops Below $4,000, Bitcoin Falls Below $77,000
TradingKey - On October 30, gold (XAUUSD) and Bitcoin (BTC) remained under pressure. U.S. PCE inflation data for September showed year-on-year increases in both headline and core inflation. Coupled with the Federal Reserve holding interest rates steady while delivering a hawkish signal, market expectations for another rate hike in December further intensified. After falling more than 1% in the previous trading session, spot gold briefly dipped below $4,000 intraday today, while Bitcoin extended its decline, dropping below $77,000 at one point to hit a six-week low.
