Weaker equities may increase demand for Gold

Spot gold prices increased by 0.9 percent in the yesterday's trading session as the rise in risk aversion in the global market sentiments increased the demand for precious metal as protection of wealth. Further, weakness in DX along with rise in Physical demand supported prices to trade positive. However, expectation among the investors that the US Federal Reserve may start trimming bond buying programme soon caped sharp upside in the prices.

The yellow metal touched an intra-day high of USD 1394.66/oz and closed at USD 1392.45/oz in yesterday's trading session.

In the Indian markets, prices ended on positive note in the yesterday trading session taking cues from spot gold prices and closed at Rs.26630/10gms after touching an intra day high of Rs. 26659/10 gms on Wednesday. Depreciation in the Indian rupee supported prices to trade in green.
