Gold Ends Weaker on Chart Consolidation from Recent Gains

(Kitco News) - Gold prices ended the U.S. day session modestly lower Tuesday, on a corrective pullback from good gains scored Friday and Monday. The rally in the Euro currency and the slumping U.S. dollar index on Tuesday did help to limit selling pressure in gold and silver. June gold was last down $0.80 at $1,308.40 an ounce. Spot gold was last quoted down $4.20 at $1,306.00. July Comex silver last traded up $0.064 at $19.635 an ounce.
