Gold prices edged slightly lower from their three-week high as the US dollar strengthened following updated government reopening developments. Traders noted that risk appetite improved marginally, limiting safe-haven inflows that previously supported bullion. Analysts said gold continues to trade within a tight range, influenced by interest-rate expectations and currency movement. ETF flows remained mixed as institutional investors await clearer signals from US macro data releases due later in the week, keeping short-term positioning subdued.
