According to Ravindra V.Rao, VP-Head Commodity Research, Kotak Securities, "After rising more than 5% in the previous week, gold prices are up 1.5% on Monday, amid broad risk off sentiments as UBS- CS deal failed to calm investor nerves. US bonds reversed early losses and yields on 2 year treasury notes fell more than 15 bps, to below 3.7%, the lowest since September 2022, signalling caution. During the weekend, Swiss authorities brokered a takeover of Credit Suisse Group AG by rival UBS Group AG, while, the Federal Reserve and five other central banks announced coordinated action to boost liquidity in US dollar swap arrangements. This raises concerns of a financial contagion and a hard landing in US, improving the appeal for the yellow metal for its safe haven status. This happens at a time when US Core CPI is at 5.5%, keeping US Fed in a tough spot. Extreme risk off sentiments and caution prevails in markets and gold is a major beneficiary of this crisis."
