Would you help me understand this sentence? Would you help me understand this sentence? With Fund outflows to continue as the Fed is likely to reduce its QE purchases inflation not being a topic and the USD to trade on the firm side, we can expect a lower gold price. Q1. I expecially don't understand the part of "inflation not being a topic and the USD to trade on the firm side" Would you explain for me? Q2. I tried rewriting the sentence. Is it correct? With Fund outflows to continue, as the Fed is likely to reduce its QE purchases inflation would not be a topic and the USD would trade on the firm side, we can expect a lower gold price. (I took out this sentence from my textbook which was written by a non-native speaker)
