July 11  – Gold gained on a weaker dollar on Tuesday but struggled for momentum, as investors were wary of placing big bets ahead of U.S. inflation data that could influence the Federal Reserve’s policy trajectory.

Spot gold rose 0.3% to $1,931.62 per ounce by 0717 GMT. U.S. gold futures were also up 0.3% to $1,937.10.
