US CPI report for October at 1:30 pm GMT was the key macro release of the day. Report was expected to show a deceleration in the headline price gauge as well as core measure staying unchanged at 4.1% YoY.
Actual data showed a bigger-than-expected slowdown in headline gauge, to 3.2% YoY, as well as an unexpected drop in core CPI to 4.0% YoY. Headline prices were unchanged compared to a month ago (0.0% MoM) while core prices were 0.2% MoM higher (exp. 0.3% MoM).
Unsurprisingly, US CPI report triggered a dovish reaction on the markets with USD slumping, indices rallying and gold moving higher.
