Gold edges lower in the early morning Asian session, weighed by higher Treasury yields. "Stronger-than-expected U.S. labor data last week dampened expectations for a near-term rate cut from the Fed," Traze's Erkin Kamran says in an email. The 10-year Treasury yield remains elevated, boosting the opportunity cost of holding nonyielding assets like gold, Kamran says. Meanwhile, market participants could stay cautious ahead of FOMC minutes due out later today, Kamran adds. Spot gold is 0.1% lower at $3,297.76/oz.
