Gold edged lower as investors weighed developments surrounding a potential
US-Iran agreement, with progress toward a deal slowing despite ongoing efforts

energy, currency and precious metals markets. He added that gold’s gains
remained limited by ongoing monetary pressures and expectations that central
banks may keep restrictive policy settings in place for longer.
