30 December 2009 The Australian

GOLD closed lower today in New York, initially falling on book squaring as the market ignored a weaker US dollar, with the metals losses later accelerating when the dollar index turned slightly higher.
Lightly traded but nearby December gold fell $US10.20 to $US1097 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. Most-active February gold lost $US9.80 to $US1098.10.
