Information is not investment advice
On Monday, the yellow metal managed to ascend, making its way towards their best outcome since April because the evergreen buck slumped on expectations that America and China would come to an agreement ending their long-lasting trade conflict.
Eventually, on the Comex exchange, gold futures jumped by up to 0.2% being worth 1,329.95 a troy ounce, which is not far from a 10-month maximum of $1,331.10.
As for spot gold, this asset showed $1,326.91 per ounce, adding nearly 0.4%.
Tracking the purchasing power of the American dollar against its primary peers the USD index headed south by 0.2% ending up with 96.54, rebounding from this year’s maximum of 97.23 recorded on Friday.
As a rule, dollar weakness benefits the yellow metal because it spurs its appeal as an alternative asset and also makes dollar-priced commodities less expensive for those who hold other currencies.
