The price of gold continues to rise, with gold reaching $1935.5 per ounce.
Gold surged to its highest level in three weeks after the release of the US job report and consumer confidence index, both of which were lower than expected.
Both reports support the monetary policy stance of the United States, indicating that the Fed has raised interest rates enough to effectively slow down US economic growth. This marks the beginning of an important week for US economic reports and remains a key factor impacting gold prices before inflation returns to its 2% target.
