The price of gold today fluctuates against the backdrop of the US announcing a Consumer Price Index (CPI) for May 2024 showing a 3.3% increase, unchanged from the previous month.

This indicates inflation in the US is showing signs of slowing down, paving the way for the Federal Reserve (FED) to consider an early interest rate cut.
