Spot gold prices at COMEX trading close to $1,785 per ounce. Meanwhile, spot silver prices increased by 0.5% and traded near $26.34 per ounce in the morning trade. Bullion prices increased on dovish Fed outlook with no hurry in curbing emergency support.

Moreover, Crude oil prices traded firm. Benchmark crude oil price increased by 0.27% and traded at $64.03 per barrel in the morning trade. Crude oil prices traded up on expectation of higher demand which offset coronavirus worries and hikes in supply.
