Gold gains capped by EU debt concerns, fiscal cliff
On Thursday, gold was volatile as concerns about U.S. fiscal cliff and debt crisis in EU supported the dollar, which is negatively correlated with the metal, while assets held in exchange-traded products reached an all-time high. Immediate delivery prices for the precious metal rose by 0.2% and consolidated at $1,718.80 per troy ounce by 2:09 p.m. in Singapore.
