“In Delhi markets, spot gold prices (24 carats) are trading at Rs 72,480 per 10 grams, down by Rs 120 from the previous close,” Saumil Gandhi, Research Analyst at HDFC Securities, said.
In the international markets, both gold and silver were trading lower at USD 2,318 per ounce and USD 29.47 per ounce, respectively.
Gold prices declined on Monday following stronger-than-expected US manufacturing and services PMI data which was released on Friday, forcing the traders to reconsider the timing of the US Federal Reserve’s interest rate cuts path, Gandhi said.

According to Pranav Mer, VP – Research (Commodity & Currency) at BlinkX and JM Financial, traders will focus on the upcoming macro data from the US, including GDP/ consumer confidence and the Personal Consumption Expenditure’s (PCE) inflation towards the end of the week, which may give some clues on the timing of rate cuts by the US Fed.source Kashmir life
