The price of gold dropped by another Bt150 per baht weight in morning trade on Thursday, the Gold Traders Association reported.

At close on Wednesday, the buying price of a gold bar was Bt26,850 per baht weight and selling price Bt26,950, while gold ornaments cost Bt26,363.24 and Bt27,450, respectively.

The spot gold price moved to US$1,869 (Bt56,487) per ounce in the morning after the price dropped by $14.80 to $1,861.60 per ounce at Wednesday’s close due to a strengthening dollar and mass sell-offs of the safe-haven asset amid the rise in the US stock market, especially the Nasdaq Index, which increased by more than 2 per cent.

The Hong Kong gold price meanwhile dropped by HK$100 to $17,260 (Bt67,283) per tael this morning, the Chinese Gold and Silver Exchange Society reported.
