Gold prices flirted with record highs on Monday as investors continue to bet on the safe-haven metal in anticipation of a US Federal Reserve interest rate cut this June.

“Heightened geopolitical tensions around the world have reduced the short-selling appetite, basically all strengthening gold’s current buy-on-dips credentials,” wrote Ole Hansen, Saxo Bank’s head of commodity strategy.
