Gold prices have remained elevated near $4,500 per ounce amid persistent geopolitical risks and record central bank purchases, which have lifted the LBMA average to $4,873 in Q1 2026. April 2026 CPI at 3.8%—the highest since May 2023—has reinforced expectations that the Federal Reserve will hold the funds rate at 3.50–3.75% through the June 16–17 FOMC meeting, supporting gold’s role as an inflation hedge while limiting near-term downside from higher real yields. A firmer U.S. dollar has capped recent gains, yet structural demand from diversification away from the greenback continues to underpin trader positioning for the end-of-June settlement.

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 during June 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.
