Gold futures (GC) hover around $2,668 per ounce, embodying trader sentiment for sustained safe-haven demand amid geopolitical risks and a dovish Federal Reserve path, despite post-election U.S. dollar strength pressuring non-yielding assets. Prices pulled back 2% last week from mid-November peaks above $2,700 on profit-taking and rising Treasury yields near 4.3% on the 10-year note, but rebounded on China's stimulus measures bolstering industrial appetite and renewed Middle East tensions. Markets imply a 72% probability of a December FOMC rate cut via CME FedWatch Tool, lowering gold's opportunity cost. Traders monitor December 6 nonfarm payrolls, December 11 CPI data, and December 18 FOMC for shifts that could propel GC toward $2,750 or test $2,550 support by month-end.

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.
