Gold Enters a New Trading Range Amid US-China Trade War
The precious metal gold prices flew near 10-month highs at $1,327 on a weaker dollar and the ongoing developments in the US-China trade deal
During the early Asian session, the precious metal gold prices flew to near 10-month highs at $1,327 on a weaker dollar and the ongoing developments in the US-China trade deal.
The dollar index held at around $96.760, adding just +0.02 so far today as the market participants are considering the recent developments from the US-China negotiations as positive. Recalling, the US has less to lose from this trade war and the market is trading dollar with a bearish bias. Weaker dollar ultimately hikes the demand for dollar substitute gold.
