Why is the Gold price moving today?
The gold prices are cautious in trade today. A firm dollar exerted pressure on the gold and silver prices and investors are eatching out for the key US jobs data due later this week. A stronger dollar usually makes gold costlier for buyers in other currencies, leading to weaker demand.
Hightened geo-political tension coupled with US intervention in Venezuela and the uncertainty with regard to Greenland is also impacting investor sentiment. Generally gold is seen as a safe haven bet, especially in times of global unrest and geopolitical disturbances. Further, steady purchases by China’s central bank continue to accelerate gold’s momentum.
Outlook for Gold Investors
Analysts expect gold prices to remain elevated in the longer run, adding that the yellow metal may move past its record highs soon. Increasing bets on further monetary policy easing by the US Federal Reserve, along with heightened geopolitical tensions, continue to add momentum to gold prices. Markets are now awaiting key US economic data, which will help shape the Fed’s policy stance and, in turn, guide the future trajectory of gold prices.
