Investors were concerned that the central bank might increase the rates keeping in view that the precious commodity is highly sensitive to rising interest rates, as these increase the opportunity cost of holding non-yielding bullion while boosting the currency, in which it is priced.In the international market, the price of yellow metal declined by $9 wobbling near a one-week low, with price moves restrained as investors sat tight before a key US inflation report that is expected to reinforce the Federal Reserve’s bullish stance. The price settled at $1,668.
