[BRIEFING.COM] The tech-heavy Nasdaq Composite (-0.33%) is in last place on Tuesday afternoon, down about 77 points.
Gold futures settled $48.40 lower (-1.0%) at $5,031/oz, as investors took profits and turned cautious ahead of key U.S. labor and inflation data that could influence the Fed's rate path. The pullback followed gold's recent surge above $5,000/oz, with improved risk sentiment and modest dollar strength weighing on prices despite ongoing structural support.
Meanwhile, the U.S. Dollar Index is up less than +0.1% to $96.89.
