ENERGY WRAP:
Crude futures fell on
Thursday after a Chinese factory barometer missed market forecasts, though positive
spending and factory data out of the U.S. cushioned losses.
PRECIOUS METAL WRAP:
Gold headed for a
weekly loss after the Federal Reserve pressed on with cuts to stimulus amid
signs of a recovery in the U.S. and holdings in the largest bullion-backed
exchange traded fund contracted to a five-year low.
