Gold prices

Gold held near its all-time high on Monday. Even before Iran attacked Israel, gold was hitting fresh records as investors try to handicap the impact of a potential rate cut by the Federal Reserve. Late Friday, Goldman Sachs raised its price target on the yellow metal to $2,700 an ounce from $2,300. State Street SPDR GLD ETF , the largest backed by physical gold, is up 7.6% this year outperforming its benchmark.
