U.S. gold ends higher on weak dollar, fund buying
U.S. gold futures ended higher on Thursday, supported by a xoxobination of a weakened dollar, inflation concerns and simmering geopolitical tensions
Gold supported as the dollar fell against the euro as better-than-expected U.S. durable goods orders and weekly jobless claims boosted risk appetite
Inflation concerns also stirred buying into the yellow metal after U.S. crude futures rose above $64 per barrel as OPEC kept its output unchanged.
Fund buying came in after futures climbed above $955 an ounce, and a rally in euros and technical buying also supported gold
Contract rollover to August futures continued at a good pace
Heightened military alert for the Korean peninsula by the United States and South Korea over a nuclear test by the North boosted the safe-haven appeal in
gold. |
