Gold Watch: Strong US CPI & GDP Put Pressure on XAU/USD — 13 Nov 2025


Today’s strong US CPI (inflation firmer than markets hoped) alongside solid GDP growth reinforces a “higher-for-longer” interest-rate path. That typically lifts the USD and real Treasury yields, increasing the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets like gold. Net effect: bearish pressure on XAU/USD unless a risk-off shock intervenes.

Why Today’s CPI and GDP Look “Good”

CPI (Inflation) drivers

  • Sticky services inflation: Shelter, health, insurance and education prices still rising faster than goods.
  • Energy & transport pass-through: Recent fuel and freight costs flowed into consumer prices.
  • Wage support: A still-firm labor market keeps unit labor costs elevated, buoying services inflation.
  • Demand resilience: Consumers continue to spend on experiences and durables, enabling firms to pass costs.
  • Base effects: Softer prints a year ago mechanically lift YoY comparisons.


GDP (Growth) drivers

  • Consumer strength: Real consumption remains positive, especially in services and big-ticket categories.
  • Business investment: Factory orders/capex and inventories contribute to topline growth.
  • Public outlays: Infrastructure and industrial-policy spending underpin activity.
  • Exports: Better global demand/supply-chain normalization help net trade.


How Strong CPI & GDP Transmit to Gold

  1. Real yields ↑ → Gold ↓: Hot CPI + firm GDP reduce rate-cut odds; real yields rise, hurting gold.
  2. USD ↑ → Gold ↓: Strong US data supports the dollar, making USD-priced gold costlier for non-USD buyers.
  3. Risk appetite ↔: If growth looks healthy, safe-haven demand for gold fades—unless a shock revives it.
