Global gold falls as oil and dollar rise

International gold prices fell more than 1% on Wednesday, hitting an 11-week low, as oil prices and the US dollar climbed following renewed US-Iran hostilities.

Spot gold dropped 1.8% to US$4,187.59 per ounce, while US gold futures fell 1.7% to US$4,213.40, according to Reuters.

The stronger dollar made gold more expensive for overseas buyers, while higher oil prices revived concerns over inflation and the possibility that interest rates could remain elevated for longer.

Reuters reported that other precious metals also weakened, with silver down 1.5%, platinum falling 2.8% and palladium slipping 0.8%.
