Gold prices remained stable as investors awaited the outcome of US-Iran negotiations.

Gold prices remained stable on Thursday as investors hoped for signals from the US-Iran talks regarding whether geopolitical risks could be eased. "Gold and silver are attempting to break through resistance levels at $5200 and $90 respectively, but have failed to sustain gains so far this week. A geopolitical agreement in the near future could increase downside risks," said Larzan Hillar, market analyst at FOREX.com, in a report. Peter Grant, vice president and senior metals strategist at Zaner Metals, said, "People are paying close attention to the progress of this third round of negotiations. But regardless, I think there is still considerable uncertainty in the market." (Jinshi)
