Gold futures finished slightly higher on Monday, as the persisting geo-political tensions boosted safe haven appeal of the bullion. Meanwhile, bets on aggressive Federal Reserve rate hike plans limited some gains in the yellow metal rates.
Gold futures for April edge higher by 20 cents or 0.1% to settle at $1,929.50 per ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile. While, spot gold jumped by 0.5% to $1,931.16 per ounce.
