Gold futures advanced to a six-month high on Wednesday, boosted by a decline in the U.S. dollar caused by congressional testimony from Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke. Silver futures took their cue from gold and gained too. Platinum and palladium also rose. After hitting a two-week high, copper dipped. Energy stocks declined, except for gasoline, which bucked the downtrend and advanced. Arabica coffee and raw sugar gained.
