Gold futures (GC) have retreated to around $4,450 per ounce after the Federal Reserve's March 18 meeting held rates steady, signaling just one cut in 2026 amid hotter-than-expected inflation from oil price surges and geopolitical risks like Middle East tensions. This hawkish repricing strengthened the U.S. dollar and lifted real Treasury yields, pressuring non-yielding gold despite ongoing central bank buying. Markets now imply trader consensus for subdued upside by June, tempered by persistent inflation above 2% targets. Watch April CPI and PPI releases ahead of the April 28-29 FOMC, plus June's dot plot update, as softer data could revive rate-cut bets and boost gold toward $4,800 or higher.

For CME Gold (GC) futures contracts, the Active Month is the nearest of CME's designated delivery-cycle months (February, April, June, August, October, December) that is not the spot month. The Active Month changes automatically on the contract's First Position Date, at which point the next eligible contract month becomes the Active Month.
Only the Active Month's official settlement price published by CME Group will be considered. Intraday trades, highs, lows, bids, offers, midpoint values, or indicative prices do not count.
Note that the settlement price may differ from the last traded price. CME's methodology to determine the settlement price can vary by commodity and contract.
Only days on which CME publishes an official settlement price for the Active Month will be included. Days without settlement prices (weekends, holidays, or market closures) are ignored.
This market will resolve based on the settlement price as it appears on the CME settlement page at the time it is first published for that trading day, regardless of any later corrections or updates.
The resolution source for this market is the CME Group website — specifically, the daily "Settlement" price for the Active Month of Gold (GC) futures.
