Gold enters the final month of the year at a crossroads, increasing attention on how the safe-haven metal performs following key economic releases next week. Most-active gold futures rose 0.8% to $1,472.70 a troy ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange Friday, in quiet trading following Thursday’s Thanksgiving holiday. They still posted a 2.8% drop for November, bringing gold 5.6% below its six-year peaks hit in early September.
