Gold gained for a seventh straight day to settle at its highest price in five months Tuesday, after the Swiss National Bank last week triggered turmoil in currency markets and investors looked ahead to this week’s meeting of the European Central Bank.
Gold for February delivery GCG5, +0.62% settled up $17.30, or 1.4%, at $1,294.20 an ounce, on the New York Mercantile Exchange. That’s the highest settlement for gold since Aug. 19. The seven-day rally has resulted in a 7.1% rise in gold prices.
