The price of gold is expected to reach an eight-month high of US$1,950 an ounce this week on looming fears of a global recession after the latest US inflation rate fell to 6.5%, said SET-listed Hua Seng Heng Gold Futures.
Gold prices closed $23.50 higher on Friday, touching their highest level since April 2022 at $1,921.80, thanks to a weak dollar.
