Gold Up As U.S. Treasury Yields Weaken, Dollar Eases

Gold prices rose for a second straight day on Thursday, supported by an easing dollar and weakness in U.S. Treasury yields. The U.S. Treasury yield curve flattened to almost 10-year lows on Wednesday as investors evaluated the impact of hawkish Federal Reserve policy on the economy even as inflation measures are deteriorating. Gold is highly sensitive to rising rates and yields, which increase the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding assets such as bullion while boosting the dollar, in which it is priced.

Spot gold rose 0.5 percent to $1,252.30 per ounce at 0423 GMT. It rose 0.3 percent in the previous session, its largest intra-day percentage change since June 6.
