Currently, gold now trades +0.11% higher at 1214.59, flirting with session highs reached at 1215.91 earlier this session. The bullion extends its recovery from just ahead of 1200 levels and now males headways towards 100-DMA at 1221 as the bulls remains supported amid aggressive selling seen in the Asian equities, which reinforces risk-off trades in the markets and boosts gold’s safe-haven appeal.
