As quoted in the press release:
Prices for the yellow metal have recently moved higher on hopes that more central-bank action and monetary stimulus will be forthcoming. Fundamentally, however, not all is well for gold.
Analysts at Barclays Capital commented:
While concerns over inflation and potential monetary easing bode well for gold, the metal is missing the support of a solid floor. Physical demand has shown signs of life, but remains fragile as India enters the seasonally strong period for consumption.
