Globally, spot gold was trading at $2,500.99 per ounce, down 0.2 per cent at 9.10am UAE time.
The rally in gold prices has been mainly driven by expectations of the US Federal Reserve cutting interest rates in September and geopolitical uncertainty in the Middle East.
Ray Jia, research head for China at World Gold Council, said the gold price has been supported by intensifying expectations of a cut from the US Fed in September – which has weakened US Treasury yields and the dollar – and rising safe-haven demand on various fronts.
Emirates NBD Research said gold broke through the $2,500 per ounce level for the first time on Friday, but the precious metal has slipped back below that level in trading this morning but prices are still up around 21 per cent year-to-date.
