XAUUSD - Tread water ahead of FOMC minutes
Updated
Gold prices did not stray too far from flat levels in quieter US trading on Wednesday. Traders are waiting for the minutes of the Federal Reserve's final Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting to be released this afternoon.

Today's FOMC minutes may or may not provide new clues about the US central bank's bent monetary policy.
