[BRIEFING.COM] With about two hours to go on Thursday the tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (-0.85%) is in last place, down about 190 points.
Gold futures settled $3.00 higher (+0.1%) at $3,771.10/oz, a modest gain given the dollar's rise and a run of stronger-than-expected U.S. data on GDP, jobless claims, and durable goods. Traders still kept some bids under bullion, viewing the Fed's easing path and rate-cut expectations as a counterbalance to the resilient economic backdrop.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Dollar Index is up about +0.7% to $98.51.
