" Gold prices tested their key support level of $3140 per troy ounce in the international markets but held on a closing basis, and silver prices also recovered amid easing U.S. PPI data and better than expected U.S. retail sales data," said Manoj Kumar Jain of Prithvifinmart Commodity Research, according to an ET report.
The US Producer Price Index decreased by 0.5% month-on-month, contrary to anticipated 0.3% growth. Both the dollar index and US 10-year bond yields declined, providing support to gold and silver valuations.
The Dollar Index (DXY) registered a decline of 0.20 or 0.20%, settling near 100.68.
"Easing geopolitical tensions and a US-China trade deal could limit gains of gold and silver. We expect gold and silver prices to remain volatile in today's session amid volatility in the dollar index and US inflation expectations data; gold prices could hold its key support level of $3,140 per troy ounce and silver prices could also hold $31.40 per troy ounce levels," he added.
