According to Motilal Oswal Commodities (MOC), the MCX gold is expected to quote in the range of Rs 40,700-41,650 for 10 gm.<\/p>\n<p>The start of the new year seems to have brought multiple triggers for gold, the biggest one being the geopolitical crisis in the oil-producing belt in the West Asia. While analysts are forecasting robust returns from gold in 2020 as central banks have been cutting interest rates, the geopolitical crisis has triggered a rally in the precious metal at the start of the year. Gaurav Dua, senior vice-president and head for capital market strategy at Sharekhan, said, \u201cOur view on gold is positive for 2020 because the precious metal does well when central banks cut rates and launch quantitative easing programmes.<\/p>\n<p>This puts presure on the dollar. With the geopolitical crisis, the upside has been very sharp.\u201d<\/p>\n<p><a target=\"_blank\" href=\"http:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/market\/stock-market\/angel-broking-ltd-stock-price\/\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Angel Broking<\/a> on Wednesday said rising tension between the US and Iran boosted the appeal for the safe haven asset and pushed the prices higher.<\/p>\n<p>The possibility of a trade deal being signed between the US and China is another trigger for the yellow metal. The deal which was supposed to happen towards the end of 2019 is now scheduled to be signed in January 2020. Markets will remain cautious till the trade deal is inked, which will again boost gold prices. According to MOC, the deadline for the signing of phase one deal is nearing, which will keep gold\u2019s prospects higher.<\/p>\n<div class=\"common-bottom-text\">\n<p>Get live <a href=\"https:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/market\/stock-market\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Stock Prices<\/a> from BSE and NSE and latest NAV, portfolio of <a href=\"https:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/mutual-funds-india\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Mutual Funds<\/a>, calculate your tax by <a href=\"https:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/income-tax-calculator\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Income Tax Calculator<\/a>, know market\u2019s <a href=\"https:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/market\/stock-market\/nse-top-gainers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Top Gainers<\/a>, <a href=\"http:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/market\/stock-market\/nse-top-losers\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Top Losers<\/a> &amp; <a href=\"https:\/\/www.financialexpress.com\/mutual-funds-india\/equity-funds\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Best Equity Funds<\/a>.
