MW : Gold futures fall more than $6 in electronic trade
TOKYO (MarketWatch) -- December gold traded down $6.60 at $991.10 an ounce in Globex electronic trading Friday afternoon in Tokyo, after tapping a low of $990.80. The price retreat followed a Thursday close of $997.70 in New York, the highest level in six months. Front-month gold futures haven't topped $1,000 since February. But "low interest rates should keep investment demand high," analysts at Credit Suisse wrote in a note to clients Friday in Asia. "Price risks are skewed to the upside."
