Share on FacebookShare on Twitter


Gold traded flat on Friday (Nov 22) and was poised for a weekly decline as markets awaited key US economic data, which are expected to shape the Federal Reserve’s monetary policy outlook and influence bullion demand.

Spot gold fell 0.1 per cent to US$2,637.71 per ounce, as at 0006 GMT. Bullion was down nearly 3 per cent so far this week.

US gold futures edged 0.1 per cent lower to US$2,636.80.

Key US data scheduled for next week includes job openings, the ADP employment report and the employment report, all of which could provide insights into the Fed’s rate cut trajectory.

Trading was thin with US markets closed on Thursday for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Meanwhile, data on Wednesday showed progress in lowering US inflation appears to have stalled in the past months, suggesting the Fed may proceed cautiously with further cuts.
