Gold:  Gold Gold held steady on Tuesday as the dollar hovered near a three-week low after expectations of a near-term U.S. interest rate hike lost steam following last week's disappointing U.S. growth figures. U.S. consumer spending rose more than expected in June, but the Commerce Department report showed inflation still muted. This, together with weak business investment and the second quarter's anemic economic growth pace, could encourage a cautious Federal Reserve to keep interest rates at current low levels for a while. A raft of global risks that could adversely affect the United States remains on the horizon and requires close monitoring, Dallas Federal Reserve Bank President Robert Kaplan said on Tuesday. Atlanta Federal Reserve Bank President Dennis Lockhart said on Tuesday it was too soon to rule out an interest rate increase at the U.S. central bank's next meeting in September, with a lot of data set to come in on the health of the economy.
Outlook:  We expect gold prices to trade positive on the back of weak economic data from the US.
