Gold hits fresh 6-wk intraday high on positive demand data

BY

Gold was stronger, hitting its highest intraday level since July 25, as positive demand data
attracted investors back to the market and as in-line US manufacturing data eased fears the
recent turmoil in the financial markets would spill over into the wider economy.
   
Gold demand is picking up as the peak buying season in key consumer India
gets underway, analysts said, while mining output figures have been lacklustre.
