Gold futures slumped Monday to their lowest settlement in a month, with precious metal remaining under pressure after the Federal Reserve last week surprised investors by hinting at a rate rise as early as next month.
Higher rates can be a headwind for commodities like gold that don’t bear interest.
December gold GCZ5, -0.07% fell $5.50, or 0.5%, to settle at $1,135.90 an ounce, marking gold’s lowest settlement since Oct. 1, when it finished at $1,113.70 an ounce. Last week, gold lost 1.8% but still managed to log an October gain of 2.4%.
