This week's economic calendar is packed with key events affecting USD, JPY, GBP, EUR, and Gold (XAU). In the USA, watch for Core PCE Price Index, ISM Manufacturing PMI, Initial Jobless Claims, and JOLTs Job Openings. Japan releases the Tankan Large Manufacturers Index and Services PMI.

Today's analysis: The Federal Reserve's interest rate decision is approaching, putting downward pressure on gold prices.

Gold prices continue to decline after breaking an upward wedge pattern, with a key support level at $2250. The 14-day RSI indicates further potential decline unless prices recover above the 50-day and 21-day moving averages.
Japan’s Long-term Treasury Yield Surge
In the most recent trading session, asset classes remained largely unchanged as markets awaited key U.S. inflation data. The Producer Price Index (PPI) is set for release today, followed by the Consumer Price Index (CPI) tomorrow.
