Gold was trading with weakness on Tuesday amid stronger US Dollar and elevated bond yields as investors chose to remain on the sidelines ahead of US Inflation Data that will be declared later this week. The data could indicate the next rate hike in the next US Federal Reserve monetary policy announcements, a Motilal Oswal report noted.
Taking cues from their international peer, the yellow metal futures were trading with some weakness on the MCX at the time of filing of the story.
At around 5:24 pm, MCX December Gold futures were trading at Rs 50919 per 10 gram and were down by Rs 104 or 0.20 per cent from the Monday closing price.
Meanwhile, the December Silver futures were trading at Rs 58285 per kg around this time and were down by Rs 817 or 1.38 per cent.
