COMEX gold trades mixed near $1850/oz after a 1% gain yesterday when it tested June highs. Gold rallied sharply as US inflation data fueled growth worries and increased gold’s appeal as an inflation hedge. Gold however pared gains as rising inflationary pressure also boosted expectations that Fed may be forced to tighten monetary policy soon and this pushed US dollar index to July 2020 highs and bond yields higher. Gold has witnessed a sharp rally in last few sessions and the price is holding near $1850/oz level indicating upward momentum.
