At a glance

US GDP and core inflation data are scheduled for 18:00 IST. Here is what Indian buyers should know before the releases.

US GDP and inflation data are due at 18:00 IST

The US Advance GDP q/q and Core PCE Price Index m/m are scheduled for 18:00 IST on Thursday, 29 October 2026. The economic calendar marks both releases as high impact.

The US Advance GDP Price Index q/q and Unemployment Claims are also scheduled for 18:00 IST, both marked medium impact.

What the releases measure

Advance GDP is an early estimate of how the US economy’s output changed from the previous quarter. The Core PCE Price Index tracks monthly changes in consumer prices, excluding food and energy.

Investors watch growth and inflation data when assessing the outlook for interest rates. That can affect views on the US dollar, which matters to gold because gold is priced internationally in dollars. This is general context, not a forecast of what the releases will show or how prices will respond.

What to check before buying

A move in the dollar against the rupee can affect the rupee price of gold and silver on the day. For a purchase, use a firm quote for the product and quantity you want rather than treating an earlier counter reading as the price you will pay.
