Gold subdued as hopes for deeper Fed rate cut dim
Aug 15 (Reuters) -Gold prices were flat on Thursday after a 1% drop in the last session, as U.S. data showing consumer prices rose as expected last month lowered bets of a bigger rate cut from the Federal Reserve in September.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Spot gold XAU= was nearly unchanged at $2,448.49 per ounce, as of 0155 GMT, after bullion prices fell their most since Aug 6 on Wednesday. U.S. gold futures GCcv1 rose 0.26% to $2,486.00.
* Data on Wednesday showed that the U.S. consumer price index rose moderately in July and the annual increase in inflation slowed to below 3% for the first time since early 2021.
* The data opened the door wider for the U.S. central bank to cut rates next month but a larger reduction is unlikely.
* Traders now see an about 36% chance of a 50-basis-point rate cut in September, down from 50% prior to the data release, according to the CME FedWatch Tool.
* A low interest rate environment tends to boost non-yielding bullion's appeal.
* Market focus will be now on U.S. retail sales and initial jobless claims data due at 1230 GMT.
* Elsewhere, Hamas said on Wednesday it would not take part in a new round of Gaza ceasefire talks slated for Thursday in Qatar, but an official briefed on the talks said mediators expected to consult with the Palestinian group afterwards.
* Spot silver XAG= fell 0.4% to $27.49 per ounce, platinum XPT= gained 0.4% to $923.35 and palladium XPD= shed 0.9% to $927.25
* South Africa's Northam Platinum warned of a sharp fall in profit, saying it expected an uncertain global economic outlook to keep platinum group metal (PGM) prices low for "some time".
