In the global markets, the non-interest-bearing metal is heading towards its largest weekly decline in five weeks. Spot gold was up 0.3% at $1,951.19 per ounce as of 0249 GMT. However, it had earlier hit its lowest level since July 12 and ended 1.4% lower in the previous session. Bullion has declined by 0.4% so far this week, marking its most substantial weekly fall since June 23, as reported by Reuters.
The higher drift in gold prices lacks conviction, as there is still indecision at play in the lead-up to the upcoming Bank of Japan meeting. Speculations about the meeting discussing tweaks to its yield curve control policy have kept market participants on edge.
As the global market remains cautious, Dubai’s gold prices reflect the broader trends. Investors and traders are closely monitoring the economic indicators and developments that could influence gold’s future trajectory.
