EUR edged to 1.1769 as the dollar softened on risk-on flows into Asian equities and tech. DXY held below 98.10 for a third straight session.

Weak dollar momentum is structural — markets are pricing two Fed cuts by September while ECB stays hawkish on sticky services inflation.

US CPI Tuesday 15:30 TRT is the week's pivot. Core above 0.3% MoM would reprice Fed path and reverse dollar weakness sharply.

Gold dropped $35 to $4,684 despite Trump rejecting Iran's peace deal. Risk-on flows into equities and crypto pulled capital away from the safe haven.

Gold's failure to rally on geopolitical escalation is a bearish signal. The metal is trading as a crowded long, not a hedge — profit-taking dominates.

US CPI Tuesday is the swing factor. Hot print revives real-rate fears and pressures gold further; soft print restores $4,730+.
