Technical Levels of Gold and other Major MCX Commodities
MCX Gold prices steadied near a 2-1/2-month high on Monday after weaker-than-expected U.S. non-farm payrolls data drove expectations that the Federal Reserve may go slow on tapering economic support measures.
Limiting gold’s upside, the dollar index rose 0.1% after falling to a one-month trough in the last session. Labour Department data showed on Friday U.S. non-farm payrolls increased by 235,000 jobs last month, far below economists’ expectations of 728,000.“After the labour data disappointed the markets, investors are seeing less pressure on Jerome Powell to start tapering,” said Carlo Alberto De Casa, a market analyst at Kinesis. Fed Chair Jerome Powell had hinted last month that strong jobs recovery was a pre-requisite for the central bank to start paring back its asset purchases. Some investors view gold as a hedge against inflation that may follow stimulus measures, while lower interest rates reduce the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding bullion. However, “the price action on Friday reinforces that gold’s upward momentum is waning,” Jeffrey Halley, senior market analyst, Asia Pacific at OANDA said in a note.
