Gold edged up in early Asian trading on March 24, supported by geopolitical tensions. The Pentagon is sending another aircraft carrier strike group to the Middle East, a U.S. official said, as tensions rise in the region following the resumption of Israeli attacks on Hamas in the Gaza Strip.
The precious metal is increasingly sought after as a safe haven, not least because of geopolitical tensions, Commerzbank Research commodity analysts said in a research report. "As long as this is the case, the downside potential for gold is likely to remain limited," they added.
Spot gold was up 0.1% at $3,025.74/oz.
