2019.03.2016:30:00UTC+00Gold Prices Rise Again On Wednesday

Gold prices continued to climb on Wednesday as the dollar weakened further after the Federal Reserve release its dovish monetary policy.

The Fed kept interest rates unchanged as expected, but it also now indicated interest rates are likely to remain unchanged for the remainder of 2019.

Earlier projections had indicated as many as two rate hikes before the end of the year, but the downward rate revision points to an expected slowdown in economic growth in the first quarter of this year while inflation remains comfortable.

Gold futures for April settled up $6.84 or 0.52 percent at $1,314.30 an ounce. On Tuesday, gold futures for April added $5.00 or 0.4 percent at $1,306.50 an ounce.

Silver was up 12 cents or 0.78 percent to $15.52 and platinum climbed $12.50 or 1.47 percent to $868.00.
