Gold prices tilted lower on Thursday amid constant wavering and sideways trading, as traders await the European Central Bank's meeting today. 

 

The Federal Reserve raised interest rates yesterday to below 2%, while expecting two rate hikes this year, slashing demand on gold. 

 

The Fed cited bright outlook for US economy, in turning hurting demand on gold, a traditional safe haven in times of turmoil. 

 

Gold inched down to $1,298.24 an ounce from the opening of $1,299.18. with an intraday low at $1,297.54, and a high at $1,301.01.
