Gold gave up some of its overnight gains on Tuesday on a stronger dollar and fears the Federal Reserve could soon raise U.S. interest rates.
The greenback got a lift from a Wall Street Journal report that Fed officials were seriously considering dropping an assurance that short-term interest rates would stay near zero for a “considerable time”.
The step might be taken at the Fed’s policy meeting next week, the report said. Higher rates would decrease demand for non-interest-bearing bullion.
