In the international markets, gold prices were set on Friday for their biggest weekly gain since April, after rallying close to a one-month high, as markets scale back expectations of further US interest rate hikes, sending the dollar to its lowest in more than a year.

Spot gold was little changed at $1,959.81 per ounce by 0504 GMT, and up 1.9 per cent for the week. US gold futures were flat at $1,964.00. Making gold less expensive for overseas investors, the dollar index touched its lowest level since April 2022.

Ravindra V Rao, vice-president and head (commodity research) at Kotak Securities, said, “COMEX gold prices rose for the third straight day and closed near a one month high of $1,963.8 per troy ounce, tracking sharp plunge in the greenback and the US benchmark treasury yields. Dollar index has fallen almost four per cent during the last six trading sessions, as the US inflation pressures are showing broader signs of moderation with both headline and core rates undershooting expectations in June.”

He added that the recent US inflation data provided a much-needed boost for the yellow metal. Cooling inflation improved the optimism that Federal Reserve’s rate-hiking campaign may be nearing an end. Money markets are currently expecting the US central bank to raise its funds rate by 25 bps in the July meeting and hold it unchanged for the rest of the year, aiding bullions.
