Gold traded near a 15-month peak on Monday as a tumble in the dollar and weakness in global equities pushed up the metal to near $1,300 an ounce.

  Spot gold was little changed at $1,292.27 an ounce by 0322 GMT, after climbing to $1,296.11 on Friday, the highest level since January 2015.

 U.S. gold futures rose 0.3 percent to $1,294.50. They hit a 15-month top of $1,299 in the previous session before paring some gains.

Gold was also underpinned by weak U.S. economic data that supported the Federal Reserve's cautious stance on higher U.S. interest rates. The central bank's policy statement released last week was viewed as largely dovish.and contact this no.9827808090
