Gold prices have risen sharply since hitting a more than two-and-a-half-year low in September, as hopes of slower U.S. interest rate hikes and a weaker dollar boosted bullion demand.

由於美國升息放緩和美元疲軟的預期提振了黃金需求，金價自 9 月觸及兩年半以來的低點以來大幅上漲。

While gold is seen as an inflation hedge, higher interest rates dull the metal's appeal as they increase the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding bullion.

雖然黃金被視為通膨對沖工具，但較高的利率削弱了黃金的吸引力，因為它們增加了持有無收益黃金的機會成本。

然而，央行在 12 月的下一次會議上表示，升息幅度較小，為 50 個基點，並表示最終利率需要上調至高於先前預期的水平。

Data on Friday showed U.S. consumer spending rose more than expected in October, while annual inflation slowed for a third straight month, both of which bode well for the economy's outlook.

週五的數據顯示，美國10月份消費者支出成長超過預期，而年通膨率連續第三個月放緩，這兩者都是經濟前景的好兆頭。
