Some commercial interest was seen in the markets at the lower end of the trading ranges in both gold and silver. Investors were slightly short, so the markets succeeded in gaining their feet. Managed-money accounts were covering short positions. While gold and silver gained, platinum lost as well as copper. Arabica coffee futures also rose, while raw sugar settled down.
