According to Reuters report, Gold prices extended gains to a near three-month high on Friday and were heading for their best week in over 2-1/2 years, as signs of cooling US inflation bolstered bets that the Federal Reserve would be less hawkish on rate hikes going forward.

US consumer prices rose less than expected in October and data showed annual inflation below 8% for the first time in eight months, the Reuters report said, adding that the inflation data triggered a sharp fall in the US dollar, which was headed for its biggest two-day drop in almost 14 years.

Markets are now pricing in a 71.5% chance of a 50-basis point rate hike at the Fed’s December meeting, up from around 50/50 a week ago, the report further stated.

Gold is trading above its 50-day and 100-day moving averages, which is considered a bullish signal by traders; elsewhere, spot silver slipped 0.3% to $21.6 per ounce, but was poised for its second straight weekly rise having hit its highest since June, the report also mentioned.

Gold also showed growth on Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX) today. In contrast, Silver prices fell on November 12.
