SINGAPORE, July 1 (Reuters) - Spot gold was flat on Friday after Greece approved austerity measures to secure emergency funding, seen to diminish safe-haven demand for bullion.
FUNDAMENTALS
* Spot gold was little changed at $1,499.09 an ounce by 0035 GMT, little changed from a week earlier.
* U.S. gold
* Greece's parliament approved the final austerity measures needed to secure financial aid and avoid a debt default, but longer-term dangers lurk, potentially supporting safe haven demand in gold.
* Gold was the best-performing metal in the second quarter, during which commodities posted the largest quarterly loss since the 2008 financial crisis, led by steep sell-offs in grains and oil.
* The U.S. Federal Reserve ended its $600 billion bond purchase programme on Thursday, which has helped commodities rally since late last year, as investors speculate on the possibilities of further stimulus from the central bank.
* The latest U.S. data painted a mixed picture, with factory activity in the Midwest accelerating in June, but initial jobless claims last week higher than expected.
