Metals prices were slightly lower on the day, at least partly due to lower trading volumes due to holidays in China and Japan. Gold was down a bit to $666.80 per troy ounce despite trading as high as $676.30 earlier in the day. Platinum hit a record high of $1,184 per troy ounce but slid back to $1.175 later in the session. Palladium dropped by 1.3 percent to $375 per troy ounce. Meanwhile in base metals, copper dropped by 0.1 percent to $7,125 per tonne.
