In global markets, gold remains strong despite pressures from economic recovery efforts that kept demand low. Bloomberg reported that the price of gold futures for June's contract at the NYME's Comex division gained 0.12 percent to trade for US$1.784.1 per troy ounce.
In upcoming weeks new purchases from India and China are expected to give wind for gold. In March, India's gold imports from Switzerland surged to their highest level in nearly eight years.
