A resurgent China drove other non-U.S. currencies, with the dollar index falling near $102. In addition, U.S. economic data did not support hawkish policy and Federal Reserve policymakers calculated that another steep rate hike this year would push the U.S. economy into a hard spot. The dollar's renewed decline supported gold's four-week rally. Today's US holiday, the volatility may narrow. The proposed range is $1,912 to $1,925.
