Gold was on the brink of five-year lows on Tuesday, with more losses expected in the coming months following Monday’s “bear raid” when sellers dumped an estimated 33 tonnes in just two minutes. Within a further minute, the deals had been completed, sending the most-active U.S. gold futures contract down $48 to as low as $1,080.00 per ounce, its weakest since February 2010. Spot gold stood at $1,104.50 per ounce at 1348 GMT on Tuesday, with another 29 tonnes worth about $1.02 billion changing hands on the Shanghai exchange during the day.
