Gold Edges Up For a Third Straight Session

Gold futures edged higher on Monday to score a third straight session climb, buoyed by uncertainty surrounding President Donald Trump's address to Congress late Tuesday. April gold saw a modest climb of 50 cents to settle at $1,258.80 an ounce. That was the highest finish for a most-active settlement since Nov. 10, according to FactSet data.
