Gold futures traded modestly higher Tuesday as investors looked ahead to the Federal Reserves’s policy meeting next week, which could determine the direction of the dollar and dollar-denominated commodities like gold.
Gold for December delivery was marginally higher, gaining $1, or about 0.1%, at $1,122.10 an ounce, after swinging between small gains and losses in early Tuesday action.
The precious metal has been down nine of that past 11 sessions and hasn’t drawn much of a bid in recent weeks on the expectation that the Fed may raise interest rates for the first time since 2006. Interest-bearing assets like Treasurys have diminished the appeal of gold, which doesn’t bear any interest, while anticipation of a near-term rate increase has dulled expectations for gold.
