WASHINGTON (dpa-AFX) - Gold futures continued to fall Monday morning, hitting 9-month lows as U.S. stocks enjoyed a post-election rally.
With little appetite for safe haven assets, gold futures have been sliding for the past few weeks.
Gold for December was down 3 dollars at $1170 an ounce.
Expectations remain the Federal Reserve will raise interest rates in December.
Reports on weekly jobless claims, monthly auto sales, manufacturing activity and construction spending are slated for release, a day after encouraging reports bolstered the case for gradual policy tightening.
