Muscat: Spot gold rose 0.2% to $3,540.64 per ounce, while U.S. gold futures for December delivery advanced 0.4% to $3,607.60. The rally comes as traders, closely tracking the CME FedWatch tool, assign a 92% probability that the Fed will reduce rates by 25 basis points at its September 17 meeting.
The anticipation of lower borrowing costs has fueled demand for bullion.
