Gold edges lower as stocks rally on improved risk appetite

- Gold prices eased on Monday as stock markets rallied after upbeat Chinese economic data soothed some concerns about the global economy and boosted risk appetite, although losses were limited by a sliding dollar.

Global stocks surged on strong Chinese factory activity data and signs of progress in U.S.-China trade negotiations. Gold has gained more than 11 percent since touching its lowest in some 1-1/2 years last August, on a dovish U.S. Federal Reserve and global growth concerns.Global demand for gold in 2019 will rise to the highest in four years, as higher consumption by jewellers offsets a fall in purchases by central banks, an industry report said on Monday.

Is there someone at REuters who can explain what that headline means?

at least 3 month of a lot of bad macro data. risk appetite: my ass
