It is a leading indicator of consumer price inflation which accounts for the majority of overall inflation. A higher-than-expected data is bullish for the dollar, and lower-than-expected data is bearish for the dollar. The data came out to be 0.3% rather than the forecasted result of 0.2% which was bearish for the dollar. Bulls interfered and the dollar index showed some recovery from 104.50 reaching 115.30 before bouncing back down.

Gold has fallen sharply from $ 1806 to $1788 level breaking the support level, but it is expected to recover in the upcoming days affected by world inflation, the interest rate in Europe, U.S – China tensions, and the overall world political situation.
