However, a trade below Rs 71,000 could pull prices to the supports at Rs 70,500 and further down to Rs 69,900,? Iyer added.
?The market forces and events which have taken gold to higher pricing since the end of March are still dominantly in play. The two primary forces are dollar weakness and data indicating an uptick in inflation.

Recently the US Labor Department showed that the consumer price index jumped to 4.2% in April. It is up 2.6% from the numbers revealed in March,? said Amit Khare, AVP- research commodities, Ganganagar Commodities Limited.
