Gold price in India continued to drop on Monday, tracking its international peers. Dip in US dollar prices and the anticipation of US Federal Reserve would start paring stimulus this year has kept the bullion under pressure in the last few weeks.

In the international market, gold price remained flat on Monday. Spot gold was flat at $1,756.25 per ounce by 0053 GMT. US gold futures were unchanged at $1,756.80. The dollar index dropped 0.1 per cent. The benchmark US 10-year Treasury yields touched its highest level since early June on Friday. US employers added 194,000 jobs in September, well below expectations. However, upward revisions to prior month’s data mean the economy has now made up for half of the jobs deficit it faced in December.
Some experts believed that weaker-than-expected non-farm employment numbers in August and September may keep the Federal Reserve from tapering its monetary policy. However, others opined the overall upbeat internals of jobs report will not alter the Fed’s trajectory of tapering.”But at the least, jobs data injected a bit more uncertainty into the marketplace thinking on the matter. Judging from the reaction of the US Treasury market, bond traders believe the Fed will remain on its ‘sooner rather than later’ track for tightening US monetary policy,” said Amit khare, AVP — research Commodities, Ganganagar Commodity Limited.
