According to Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst – Commodities at HDFC Securities, spot gold prices in the Delhi markets traded at ₹60,800/10 gramme, up ₹25 per 10 gramme.
Gold prices remained stable for a second day in a row despite an increase in the value of the US dollar, said Gandhi.
Both gold and silver were trading flat on the global markets at USD 1,957 per ounce and USD 23,42 per ounce, respectively.
As traders prepared for new economic data and the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate policy next week, gold prices fluctuated within a small range on Wednesday as they avoided placing large bets.
By 0923 GMT, spot gold was trading in a $13 range, down 0.1% to $1,961.73 per ounce. US gold futures fell 0.2% to $1,977.70.
Prior to the Fed meeting on June 13, the US inflation report for May will be released, giving investors greater insight into the condition of the world’s largest economy.
“Gold is moving in a small range, making it seem like the volatility disappeared. But this compression of the volatility is mostly related to the market being in a wait-and-see mood as the wait for the Fed’s rate hike path and for new market drivers,” said Carlo Alberto De Casa to Reuters, an external analyst at Kinesis Money.
