Gold prices pulled back on Monday as markets locked in some profits after a strong first quarter, with focus now turning to a slew of U.S. economic readings this week for more cues on monetary policy.

While government intervention calmed market concerns over an imminent collapse, the yellow metal has still remained relatively underpinned by safe haven demand.
