FIN: Gold prices fall more than 1 pct to 4-1/2 week low
LONDON, Oct 15 (Reuters) - Gold prices fell more than 1 percent on Monday to $1,734.29 an ounce, their lowest since September 13, after better than expected U.S. retail sales data tempered expectations of the scope of the Federal Reserve's latest monetary easing programme.
Selling accelerated as prices dropped through support near their late September low at $1,737.50 an ounce.
Spot gold was down 1 percent at $1,735.50 an ounce at 1358 GMT.
