The commodity has been in a strong upmove and broke above $2000 per ounce mark today as rising wave of global liquidity following the banking crisis in the US and Europe boosted the metal.

The US dollar liquidity swap line arrangement will run from Monday. In a statement the Bank of England, Bank of Japan, Bank of Canada, the European Central Bank, US Federal Reserve and Swiss National Bank launched the co-ordinated action to enhance the provision of liquidity.
