Ravindra V Rao, VP-Head Commodity Research, Kotak Securities Ltd, said, “COMEX gold prices eased almost 0.5 per cent and closed at $1970.9 per troy ounce, amid a rally in the greenback and US benchmark treasury yields after economic data from the US showed that weekly jobless claims fell to a two-month low of 228k during the previous week. The dollar index rose towards 100.8 levels, while Euro slid after dovish comments from some ECB officials.”

He added that the yen weakened toward $140 levels as BoJ’s Ueda reiterated his commitment to maintaining an ultra-loose monetary policy, further bolstering the greenback. Rising geopolitical tensions between Russia and Ukraine also raised concerns on the inflation front.

“Wheat prices soared on Wednesday, jumping further when the Defense Ministry in Kyiv said any ships heading to ports in Russia and Ukrainian areas occupied by Moscow’s troops were also legitimate targets. Any uptick in inflation might lead to further monetary tightening from the central banks. Still, gold prices are poised for a third weekly gain amid signs of the US FED nearing the end of the rate hikes,” Rao said.
