1433 ET – Gold futures rise for a second session as Treasury yields ease and the dollar weakens, with the market waiting to see Friday’s August employment report and its implications for the Fed’s mid-September meeting. Gold traders are also keeping a wary eye on events in the Middle East, where renewed fighting is pushing up oil prices, risking inflation pressures that could in turn lead to higher interest rates. Front-month gold settles up 2.9% in New York at $4,491.70 a troy ounce. Silver rises 3.5% to $66.973 a troy ounce. (anthony.harrupwsj.com)
