The precious metal was supported by the subdued US inflation data, bolstering hopes that the US Federal Reserve will start cutting rates later this year.
Released on Friday, the US core PCE slowed as expected in May as personal spending fell short of expectations. Combined with Thursday’s soft GDP number, last week’s US data was supportive of the Federal Reserve (Fed) doves.
“The latest US inflation data remain fresh on investors' mind, with the data coming in line with consensus, and generally did little to sway current market rate expectations for the Fed's easing process to kick-start in September,” said Yeap Jun Rong, market strategist at IG.
