Gold prices inched higher on Monday but were off one-year highs reached late last week as mixed economic data prompted investors to reassess the U.S. Federal Reserve's rate hike trajectory and boosted the dollar.
Spot gold was up 0.1% at $2,004.74 per ounce, as of 0353 GMT. U.S. gold futures rose 0.1% to $2,017.50.
Gold dropped 2% on Friday after data showed U.S. core retail sales slipped 0.3% last month, but gains in January and February put consumer spending on track to accelerate in the first quarter.
Spot silver fell 0.2% to $25.29 per ounce, platinum dipped 0.7% to $1,037.30 and palladium shed 0.7% to $1,493.37.
