Gold Prices Inch Higher Amid Strong Physical Demand

Gold prices experienced a slight increase in Asian trade on Tuesday. The precious metal's market is currently being underpinned by persistent physical demand, particularly from China, and ongoing purchases by central banks, according to a note from ANZ.

This sustained demand for physical gold, coupled with significant buying activity from monetary authorities, provides a foundational support for current market prices. The trend suggests a continued investor and governmental interest in gold as a store of value.
