Spot gold opened at 6.181.69 TL, continuing from the 6.181 TL level. The Fed's decision not to change policy rates eased short-term selling pressure on gold. However, Fed Chair Warsh's statement that 'a rate hike could come to the agenda if needed' and three FOMC members favoring a hike have slowed gold's upward momentum. Quarter gold at 10.124 TL, half gold at 20.248 TL, full gold at 39.778.32 TL, Republic gold at 40.310 TL, Gremse gold at 99.750.86 TL, and ounce gold at 4.059.86 dollars. How will markets react to this development?
