COMEX gold trades modestly lower near $1890/oz after a 0.1% gain yesterday. Weighing on gold price is firmness in the US dollar index ahead of US inflation data and ECB’s monetary policy meeting today. ETF activity remains mixed while consumer demand in India remains impacted by virus-related restrictions. Gold may remain choppy ahead of key events however the general bias remains on the upside unless we see a sharp rise in US dollar.

The gold outlook will be clearer after tonight’s US CPI data, so ahead of that most investors remain on the sidelines and MCX gold price is sideways. Notably, there may be a knee-jerk reaction in the market and gold prices may fall if the inflation data comes in higher than expected. However, the fundamentals are still favourable for gold prices because of the Federal Reserve’s insistence that the ongoing inflation is transitory. In MCX Gold, consistent trying below 49000, will push prices towards 48450-48300-48000. The crucial resistance is around 49650 and sustenance above that will push towards 50000-50300.
