Globally, gold prices held close to a more than two-week low, as the dollar jumped on bets for quicker interest rate increases after U.S. President Joe Biden backed Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell for a second term. Spot gold was little changed at $1,805.95 per ounce, after sliding to its lowest since November 5 on Monday. U.S. gold futures was steady at $1,805.50.
Analysts View:
Manoj Dalmia, Founder and Director – Proficient Equities Ltd.: “There was a significantly big sell off in gold on Monday. However, prices are still quoting above the important moving averages of 100 and 50 days and the intermediate trend still remains upward for gold. The trend is shown with an upward slopping line in the adjoined diagram, starting from the September low of Rs 45,769. The September high of Rs 47,550 was an important resistance for gold and the current uptrend was set into motion when this resistance got breached in early November. This erstwhile resistance is now expected to provide support for gold.”
Ravi Singh, Vice President and Head of Research, ShareIndia: “Gold fall nearly 2 per cent yesterday as the dollar jumped after U.S. Fed Chair Powell was nominated for a second term, driving expectations that the central bank may stay the course on tapering economic support. After this news, the US treasury yields surged as traders are perceiving that a more dovish policy may paving it’s way. We expect this weakness may continue till Rs 47,500.
He suggested, “Buy Zone above – Rs 48,250 for the target of Rs 48,500; Sell Zone below – Rs 47,850 for the target of Rs 47,500.”
