Gold, platinum rise on weak dollar
Commodity Online
SINGAPORE : Despite profit taking by investors, Gold rose to a one-week high during early Asian trade Monday as dollar weakened against the euro amid stock markets recovery.
At 9.30 a.m in Singapore, gold rose as high as $845.55 an ounce, its highest level since Jan. 12, before slipping to $837.60.
Gold has bounced around 4% since tumbling to a one-month low last Thursday, when softer equities forced investors to cash in to cover losses.
Platinum extended gains on bargain hunting, with prices trading over 50% below a record peak hit last March.
Platinum was trading at $955.50 an ounce, up $9.00 from New York's notional close on Friday.
