Dubai: Gold prices touch new highs in early trade

Vijay Valecha, Khaleej Times, March 18, 2025

Gold prices rose to a new record high in Dubai on Tuesday, as precious metal crossed $3,015 per ounce.

At 9am, 24K was trading at Dh362.75 per gram, up Dh2.75 per gram from the previous close. Similarly, 22K rose to Dh336.0, 21K to Dh322.0 and 18K to Dh276.0 per gram.

Spot gold was trading at $3,011.58 per ounce, up 0.46 per cent, at 9.10am. It crossed $3,015 per ounce earlier in the day as tariff uncertainty fueled the safe-haven metal’s demand.

Vijay Valecha, chief investment officer at Century Financial, said the ongoing tariff uncertainties have set off the demand for safe-haven assets, and the trend is expected to continue.
“This week also beholds the US Federal Reserve’s meeting, in which the comments of Fed Chair Jerome Powell will be of focus as market participants try to gauge the interest rate outlook sentiment. With regards to the interest rate decision, according to CME’s Fed watch tool, there is a 99 per cent probability that the interest rates will remain at current levels,” said Valecha.
