“Traders will be awaiting the US macroeconomic data, including new unemployment claims and trade balance to be released later on Thursday,” Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst of Commodities at HDFC Securities, said.

According to commodity market experts, the bullion remained slightly subdued as Federal Reserve (Fed) Chair Jerome Powell on Wednesday said the US economy is in good shape, adding that September’s policy rate cut was a message to support the labour market.

Powell stated that despite showing progress, it’s premature to declare victory on inflation, and the US central bank could be cautious in setting monetary policy.

Silver also traded 0.27 per cent lower at USD 31.83 per ounce in the Asian market hours.

“Traders believe gold prices are poised to rise further, though a potential delay in additional interest rate cuts could lead to short-term declines, offering opportunities to accumulate,” Abans Holdings’ Chief Executive Officer Chintan Mehta, said.
