Gold Settles With a Loss As Dollar, Equities Climb

Gold futures settled with a loss on Monday as investors turned their attention to the strength in the U.S. dollar and a rally in equities. April gold fell $15, or 1.3%, to settle at $1,184.80 an ounce on Comex. Prices had fallen 0.4% on Friday, but tallied a gain of 1.3% last week as turmoil in Yemen helped buoy safe-haven demand for the metal.
