[BRIEFING.COM] The Nasdaq Composite (+0.34%) is atop the major averages with just two hours to go on Thursday.
Gold futures settled $23.70 lower (-0.7%) at $3,373.90/oz, as easing geopolitical tensions and progress on U.S. trade deals with Japan and the EU reduced safe-haven demand. Equities rallied on the improved risk outlook, further weighing on gold.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Dollar Index is now up about +0.1% to $97.33.
