Gold futures prices ended the U.S. day session moderately lower Thursday, on some backing and filling on the charts after prices Wednesday hit a five-week high. However, the keen trader and investor anxiety in the world market place did limit selling interest in safe-haven gold. December Comex gold was last down $4.60 at $1,240.30 an ounce. Spot gold was last quoted down $1.10 at $1,240.50. December Comex silver last traded down $0.034 at $17.43 an ounce.
