Gold (GC) futures traded at approximately $4,704 for the April 2026 contract on April 13, down 1.2% amid a stronger US Dollar Index (DXY) near 99, fueled by collapsed US-Iran peace talks that paradoxically eased some safe-haven flows despite oil volatility. This extends a 5.7% monthly pullback, though year-to-date gains top 47% on central bank buying, persistent geopolitical risks, and bets on Federal Reserve rate cuts as March CPI rose 0.9% but undershot forecasts. Trader consensus embeds upside potential toward $5,000-$6,300/oz by December per J.P. Morgan and Wells Fargo targets, hinging on softer inflation and declining real yields. Watch PPI this week, April CPI, and May FOMC for rate path shifts impacting gold's trajectory.

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.
