In the international markets, spot gold at Comex was trading at $2,332 per ounce, up $5 from the previous close. “Gold prices remained positive, as US participants returned from the Juneteenth holiday with a buying sentiment. This was driven by weak retail sales data and lower inflation figures. “Expectations for a rate cut in September are growing, but if any US Fed members hint at a delay beyond September, profit booking in gold is likely,” Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst - Commodity and Currency at LKP Securities, said.
