Gold futures pared some early gains on Thursday but still ended the session on a fairly strong note on the precious metal's safe-haven appeal after Russia launched a full-scale war against Ukraine. The dollar's strength limited yellow metal’s gains a bit.
Gold futures for April rose by about 0.8% to settle at $1,926.30 on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile. Spot gold gained 1.6% to settle at $1,937.82 per ounce.
