Gold Recovers After Initial Fall

Mumbai: Precious metals weren’t indifferent to the equity market volatility, witnessing profit booking and buying at low levels. Gold prices nosedived by about $20 an ounce to $849.50 in the international spot market but recovered thereafter to $863.70/oz.

Tracking the international trend, gold prices in India also softened initially, that triggered a short lived buying spree, said Suresh Hundia, President of Bombay Bullion Association.

But apart from some buying at low levels, there is still a wait and watch period, say traders.
