Gold prices rose slightly on Monday, recovering slightly after steep losses in the past week, while copper prices moved little before a slew of key U.S. and Chinese economic readings in the coming days.
Rising U.S. Treasury yields, driven by concerns over higher interest rates and a U.S. ratings downgrade, weighed on gold prices in recent sessions, as did a recovery in the dollar.
While the yellow metal saw some relief on Friday, following weaker-than-expected nonfarm payrolls data, it still closed the week about 1% lower - its worst performance in over a month.
Spot gold rose 0.1% to $1,945.03 an ounce, while gold futures expiring in December rose 0.2% to $1,979.60 an ounce by 20:46 ET (00:46 GMT).
