Gold Price Today - What to do with yellow metal?
A strong support zone in Comex Gold is seen around USD 1730 level and breakdown and sustained selling below it may drag prices lower towards USD 1710 by this week, Deveya Gaglani, Research Analyst, Axis Securities said. On the other hand, breakouts above USD 7150 may push prices higher towards USD 1790 level, Gaglani said.
"Gold prices retreated from 52500 level after prices failed to sustain near the day's high in the last session. Comex gold is trading flat near $1740 on Wednesday, as the dollar index corrected on expectations that the Federal Reserve will hike interest rates at a slower pace in the near-term. Fed officials said in recent weeks that the central bank is likely to raise interest rate by 50 basis points (bps) in December. Such a structure is positive for Bullions, which was hammered by aggressive rate hikes this year. As the US market is closed tomorrow, we have a bulk of important economic data this evening. Investors will be closely tracking it as the economic data print may influence the rate hike decision," the Axis Securities expert said.
