Gold consolidates near 3-month lows
FXStreet (Córdoba) - Gold consolidated near 3-month lows Tuesday following sharp losses the previous day amid broad dollar strength.
Spot gold fell to its lowest since June at $1,251 Monday and closed 1.0% lower but managed to recover somewhat and steadied in a tight range over the last hours. The metal is currently trading at $1,254/oz, 0.16% below its opening price.
The US dollar strengthened across the board Monday underpinned by a research from the San Francisco Fed which noted investors are underestimating how quickly US interest rates will rise.
As for silver, the gray metal fell nearly 1.0% to a 12-week low of $18.90 and it was last at $18.95 an ounce.
