Gold pared losses from a more than 1% dip on Monday as investors weighed immediate concerns over rising coronavirus cases and bets on further economic support even as Moderna became the second drugmaker to declare effective Covid-19 vaccine test results, said Reuters. Spot gold slipped 0.1% to $1,886.81 per ounce at 9:21 a.m. EST (1421 GMT). U.S. gold futures were flat at $1,885.50.
