As per FeNeGoSiDA, gold price went up in the review week due to the weak value of the US dollar in the international market. Similarly, the trade war between the US and China is in its peak and that also resulted in gold price soaring, the association added. According to Reuters, gold edged higher on Friday and was heading for a weekly gain, supported by trade concerns after the United States hiked tariffs on Chinese goods during trade talks between the two countries. Bullion was also supported by a weaker dollar which fell after data showed a lower than expected rise in the US consumer price index last month. However, world stocks rose on Friday, but were still set for the worst weekly performance since late December 2018 due to an escalation in the US-China trade dispute, Reuters added.
