Moves this explains

XAU−2.06%Jun 17 · Gold fell 2.06% on the day the Fed held its target range at 3.50%-3.75%, a unanimous vote. The S&P 500 was little changed (+0.33%) and Bitcoin fell 2.41%, so the Fed decision is a plausible driver of the decline, though no report ties the move to the hold directly.
