PRECIOUS-Gold prices slip as equities gain after Fed minutes
April 8 (Reuters) - Gold prices slipped on Thursday as investors turned to riskier assets after the U.S. Federal Reserve's latest meeting minutes indicated continued policy support and cemented hopes of a quick economic turnaround.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Spot gold inched down 0.03% to $1,736.76 per ounce at 0149 GMT. U.S. Gold futures fell 0.3% to $1,736.50 per ounce.
* Officials at the Federal Reserve are concerned about the ongoing risks of the COVID-19 pandemic and are committed to supporting the economy until its recovery is more stable, according to minutes of the central bank's most recent policy meeting released on Wednesday.
* Asian equities were on track to mirror Wall Street's cautious gains, weighing on the metal's safe-haven allure.
* The U.S. trade deficit surged to a record high in February helped by massive fiscal stimulus that is expected to put the country's economy on-track for the fastest growth in nearly four decades.
* U.S. President Joe Biden made a fiery appeal for U.S companies to foot most of the bill for his $2 trillion-plus infrastructure plan, but signalled an openness to negotiate over exactly how much they would have to pay.
