International gold prices
Gold prices eased on Monday as U.S. Treasury yields remained elevated, denting the appeal of bullion, while investors waited for this week`s key U.S. inflation and retail sales data. Spot gold was 0.1% lower at $1,740.90 per ounce by 0950 GMT. U.S. gold futures eased 0.2% to $1,742.10. As long as yields are relatively high, gold will not benefit, ABN Amro analyst Georgette Boele said, adding that the market is now focused on U.S. March Consumer Price Index data due on Tuesday, a Reuters report said.
