NY gold futures for December delivery rebounded $81.90 higher at $4,189.80 per troy ounce on October 15.
## Slowing retail sales and AI concerns
Slowing U.S. retail sales growth and credit concerns surrounding the global AI boom drove safe-haven buying of U.S. Treasuries.

## Crude extends gains
WTI crude futures for November delivery rose $2.51 to $97.60 per barrel, extending gains to a fifth consecutive session.
## Supply risks accelerate
Vessel attacks in the Strait of Hormuz and Ukraine's announced strikes on Russian oil facilities intensified supply-risk buying.
## U.S. PPI at four-year high
U.S. September PPI rose 1.3% month-over-month, marking the highest level in four years.
## Market implications
Gold prices remain sensitive to long-term interest rates while crude oil prices stay elevated due to Middle East and Russian supply concerns.
