Gold prices rose on Tuesday, supported by the decline of the U.S. Dollar (USD) against major currencies, and with stock markets showing a mixed performance.
In addition, a slight decline in U.S. consumer confidence provides support for safe haven assets, including the yellow metal.
Gold futures for June delivery increased by $13.50, or 0.7%, to close at $1,898 per ounce.
The gold’s most active contracts failed to restore the $1,900 level.
