Gold Prices Touch Seven-Week High Amid Weakened Dollar
Gold prices surged to their highest level in seven weeks after touching $4,254.98 per ounce on August 6th.
This marks the fourth consecutive session of gains for gold, which was supported by a weaker US dollar as traders assessed the likelihood of the Strait of Hormuz reopening.
The previous day saw gold record its largest single-day gain since February.
US gold futures also rose to $4,312.80, while other precious metals showed mixed performance.
