As of 9 AM ET today, spot gold is trading at $4,813.10 per ounce, representing a 0.75% decline from Friday’s close of $4,849.30. This translates to approximately $154.75 per gram and $154,746.10 per kilogram. The slight pullback is largely attributed to a strengthening U.S. Dollar Index (DXY) and short-term profit-taking following last week's rally. However, market analysts suggest that ongoing geopolitical instability in the Middle East continues to provide a strong support floor for the yellow metal as a premier safe-haven asset.
