what happened
Gold moved above $4,100 a troy ounce as lower oil prices reduced inflation concerns. According to Market Talk, New York gold futures were up 0.8% at $4,106.50 an ounce in early European trading.
Soojin Kim of MUFG said gold has kept rising even after a U.S. jobs report for November came in much stronger than expected. She argued that the recent drop in energy prices is helping to calm inflation fears and will flatten the path of rate hikes by central banks.
Silver futures gained 1% to $52.47 an ounce, while platinum rose 0.8% to $1,549.30 an ounce.
why it matters
Traders are now waiting for U.S. consumer and producer price data to get more clarity on the direction of American interest rates. Gold pays no interest, so a gentler rate path typically supports demand for the metal as a store of value.
market impact

- Gold pressure up — lower oil prices ease inflation worries and flatten the expected rate path
