Egypt's benchmark stock index extended losses to 5%.

Spot gold briefly fell below $4,000/oz in Asian trade on Oct. 23 — the first time since July — and is down more than 3% this week. Wang Jun, chief analyst at Green Dahua Futures, cites three market-moving drivers: (1) high oil prices — Brent topped $114/bbl, reinforcing global and US inflation persistence; (2) firmer Fed December rate-hike expectations, with elevated US inflation lifting the dollar and US Treasury yields and eroding gold’s appeal (Wang calls this the main driver); and (3) global liquidity tightening and deleveraging. He expects international gold to remain under pressure into late October and early November.
