Fundamental Analysis
Gold prices attracted some follow-through buying for the third consecutive day on Wednesday and rose to a one-and-a-half week high, around the $2,641-$2,642 region during the Asian session. Rising tensions between Russia and Ukraine continued to boost demand for traditional safe-haven assets, coupled with slowing US Dollar (USD) price action, acting as a bullish driver for the precious metal.
That said, overnight comments from Russian and US officials helped ease market concerns about the onset of an all-out nuclear war, which was evident in the generally positive tone in equity markets. Additionally, a healthy rise in US Treasury yields favored USD bulls and warranted some caution before positioning for any further upside moves in Gold prices.
