MW: Gold rises first day in three on safe-haven buying
Gold futures rose Thursday for the first session in three, rebounding to above $900 on ounce as gloomy economic news in the U.S. triggered safe-haven buying. Gold for February delivery ended up $16.90, or 1.9%, at $905.10 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. Gold had lost about $20 in the previous two sessions since it closed at a four-month high of $908.80 on Monday.
