Gold futures ended lower on Thursday, as the positive US Job data and better than expected manufacturing data reported earlier in the week dented safe-haven appeal of the bullion. The data pointed hopes for a steady recovery after the pandemics dampened global economies.
Gold futures for December delivery settled lower 0.4% at 1937.80 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile. Spot gold fell 0.6% to1930.24 per ounce.
