Gold rises as weaker dollar and anticipation of possible changes in Federal leadership

Singapore: Gold on Thursday edged higher, lifted by a weaker dollar and growing uncertainty after reports suggested US President Donald Trump was considering replacing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell as early as September-October.

Spot gold edged up 0.2% at $3339.20 per ounce.

US gold futures rose 0.3% to $3353.10.

The dollar opens new tab fell to its lowest level since March 2022, making greenback-priced gold less expensive for overseas buyers.

Spot silver edged up 0.2 % to $ 36.36 per ounce, platinum firmed 2.3% to $1385.38, while palladium surged 5.5 % to $ 1115.58.
