Gold rises as safe-haven demand, rate cut bets keep prices elevated

IndiaTimes Monday, 15 January 2024
Gold prices advanced on Monday, as the metal's appeal was boosted by safe-haven demand owing to tensions in the Middle-East, while markets raised bets that the Federal reserve will cut rates sooner than expected. Spot gold was up 0.2% at $2,053.00 per ounce, as of 1026 GMT. US gold futures rose 0.3% to $2,057.50, with trading expected to be low due to the Martin Luther King Day holiday. The war between Israel and Hamas has passed the 100-day mark as Israel continues its fierce offensive, while the Houthi militia's threat to respond to US strikes on Yemen kept risks elevated.
