Singapore: Gold edged higher on Thursday, lifted by a weaker dollar and growing uncertainty after reports suggested US President Donald Trump was considering replacing Federal Reserve Chair Jerome Powell as early as September-October.
Spot gold edged up 0.2% at $ 3339.20 per ounce.
US gold futures rose 0.3% to $ 3353.10.
The dollar opens new tab fell to its lowest level since March 2022, making greenback-priced gold less expensive for overseas buyers.
