Gold Finishes Lower as USD Rises

Gold prices declined on Thursday as the US Dollar (USD) showed signs of recovery from its decline yesterday.

In addition, remarks suggesting a near agreement for a new stimulus package in the United States supported risk appetite among investors and reduced demand for safe havens.

Gold futures for December delivery closed lower by $24.90, or 1.3%, at $1,904.60 per ounce.
