NEW YORK (AP) - Platinum futures set a record high in New York on Monday on fund buying on a day when global activity was lighter than usual due to a holiday in London.
Gold and silver ticked upward but held in narrow ranges, helped by the continuing softer tone in the U.S. dollar.
July platinum settled up $22.10 at $1,350.90 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange. It peaked at a contract high of $1,353.80, an all-time record for a nearby contract at the exchange.
