Gold hit a record high on Monday as fears over the economic fallout from rising coronavirus cases bolstered its safe-haven appeal, before inching lower as an uptick in the dollar fuelled some profit-taking.

“The dollar’s correction from a two-year low is taking some shine off gold,” independent analyst Ross Norman said. “We seem to be in a period of consolidation and we’ve seen some profit-taking.” Rising COVID-19 cases and simmering U.S.-China tensions have dented hopes for a swift economic recovery, driving inflows into safe-haven assets such as gold, which has climbed about 30% so far this year.
Weighing on bullion, the dollar index .DXY was up 0.3% against its rivals, making assets priced in the U.S. unit more expensive for holders of others currencies.
