Gold dropped below $3,340 per ounce on Monday as safe-haven demand eased after President Donald Trump agreed to delay the planned 50% tariff on European goods.
Trump on Sunday set a July 9 deadline to buy time for negotiations with the bloc, backing away from his earlier threat to impose the tariff on June 1.
However, trade concerns remain as Trump on Friday also warned Apple Inc. that it would be subject to 25% tariffs if it does not manufacture its iPhones in the US. Last week, bullion gained nearly 5%, supported by trade uncertainty and mounting concerns over the US economic and fiscal outlook.
Trump's new tax bill, which recently approved by the House and now headed to the Senate for a vote expected by August, is projected to widen the US budget deficit by nearly $3 trillion over the next decade.
