Gold fell on Monday morning, as the dollar rose to a two-decade high, reducing the attractiveness of dollar-denominated gold to holders of other currencies, while rising US Treasury yields put additional pressure on prices.
Spot gold fell 0.7% to $1,870.70 an ounce by 08:17 GMT, and US gold futures fell 0.8% to $1867.90.
The dollar rose as investors searched for a safe haven that yields a return due to growing concerns about slowing global economic growth and rising interest rates.
US 10-year bond yields also rose to the highest level since November 2018, putting pressure on the non-yielding yellow metal prices.
While gold is a safe haven and store of value during times of political and economic crisis, it is very sensitive to short-term US interest rates as well as bond yields, which raise the opportunity cost of holding gold.
