Precious metals are gaining strongly just ahead of next week's Fed decision. Market expectations give a 45% probability of a 50 basis point hike at Wednesday's meeting. Earlier in the market, it was reported that funds increased their allocation in precious metals futures ahead of next week's decision. Although marginally higher core CPI inflation is unlikely to justify a larger cut by the Fed, all the while it cannot be ruled out.

Gold is testing the vicinity of $2580 per ounce, which are new historical highs in the gold market.
