Tuesday witnessed the biggest US dollar\u2019s rally since 2020 on the back of fresh economic data released by the US Labour Department highlighting CPI that unexpectedly rose in August. The dollar index was up 1.5% at 109.85 in its biggest one-day percentage gain since March 2020.

The American currency, however, is still below last week’s two-decade peak recorded at 110.79. The yield on the US 10-year Treasury note rallied to 3.412%, while the yield on the 2-year note is now at 3.76% after stronger-than-expected US inflation data boosted investors’ expectations on the Fed\u2019s next move and whether policymakers will need to stay aggressive in raising interest rates.

At the time of writing, gold trades at $1697.90 per ounce versus the previous $1701.09 on Monday\u2019s close. Gold price seems pressured around $1,700 as bears take a breather after the biggest daily slump in two weeks, thanks to US inflation. It is noteworthy that there is lack of major catalyst to help gold regain momentum.

Economic Data
<\/strong>
The Consumer Price Index increased 0.1% in August, but the modest gain for the headline index masked what was a disappointing report. Gasoline prices fell 10.6% in the month, helping to keep overall inflation in check, but beyond energy goods there were not many encouraging takeaways.

Excluding food and energy prices, core inflation increased 0.6%, above consensus of 0.3%. Core goods inflation remained strong and broad-based despite indications that supply chains are functioning more smoothly and inventory stockpiles are building. Core services inflation also remained hot, increasing 0.6% for August.
