Gold price (XAU/USD) extends its sideways consolidative price move during the Asian session on Wednesday as traders opt to wait for the outcome of the highly anticipated FOMC monetary policy meeting.

Gold price struggles to gain any meaningful traction and hangs near one-week low. Hawkish Fed expectations underpin the USD and act as a headwind for the metal.

Gold price extends its sideways consolidative price move during the Asian session on Wednesday as traders opt to wait for the outcome of the highly anticipated FOMC monetary policy meeting.
