Gold: MCX August gold futures traded slightly lower in the beginning of the last week on back of rupee’s appreciation against the U.S. dollar. The Reserve Bank of India (RBI) raised marginal standing facility rate to a record 10.25 percent from 8.25 percent. Marginal Standing Facility (MF) is the rate at which the scheduled banks could borrow funds from the RBI overnight, against the approved government securities. The RBI sold 25.32 billion rupee bonds on Thursday of planned 120 billion rupee bonds to drain cash from banking system to curb higher inflation and rupee weakness. Further, the government of India eased regulations in Foreign Direct Investment (FDI) to attract foreign funds flow into India’s capital markets. These reforms in India’s money market helped rupee to gain against the U.S. dollar last week. However, gold prices in domestic bourses recovered due to overseas stability in overseas bullion market. Gold in the international market traded slightly higher as the U.S. housing data reported worse than expectation. Added, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben S. Bernanke testimony indicated delay in scaling back bond purchases also helped bullion to show some gains.
