Gold futures edged higher on Monday supported by a weaker dollar, after falling to the lowest in over two weeks in the previous session after the US Federal Reserve signaled it would raise interest rates in March. Ahead of the Fed’s meeting this month, data on nonfarm payrolls for February will be released on March 10.
Crude oil futures traded marginally lower on MCX as investors and speculators exited their positions in the energy commodity on lingering worries over lower growth targets in China which could hurt oil demand. China aims to expand its economy by around 6.5 percent this year, lower than the 6.7 percent growth achieved last year. Further, ongoing concerns over Russia's compliance with a global deal to cut crude oil output, too influenced crude oil prices.
Copper futures traded down on MCX as speculators offloaded bets, amid muted demand at the domestic spot markets. However, some losses were capped due to the gains in metal at the London Metal Exchange (LME).
