Commodities rise after economic data point to inflation. The basic personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index, which excludes food and energy, reached a record 3.6% year-on-year in August. This is the highest increase since May 1991.
In addition, the U.S. dollar weakened. This makes gold cheap and attractive to investors who hold other major currencies. Gold is also a safe haven for investors amid rising inflation fears.
