Spot gold was trading at $2,356.49 per ounce at 9.23 am UAE time.
George Pavel, general manager at Capex.com Middle East, said gold has seen modest movements as investors adopt a cautious stance in anticipation of critical US inflation data releases scheduled for this week.

He added that investors are keeping an eye on the US Consumer Price Index (CPI), which is to be released on Wednesday.
“Upcoming reports are pivotal as they could provide insights into the Federal Reserve's timing for its initial rate adjustments. Investors are particularly keen on the possibility of a rate cut in September, contingent on the inflation data. Should the inflation figures exceed expectations, the likelihood of a rate cut may diminish, potentially negatively impacting gold prices. However, demand for gold from the Asian markets, particularly China, is expected to continue to provide support to current price levels,” he said.
