Gold price declined toward 6-year low on a stronger U.S. dollar. The greenback rose on speculation that the Fed will start raising its interest rate in December.

December futures for gold on the COMEX today dropped 1051.10 dollars per ounce.

For the first ten months of 2015, industrial profits fell 2.0% from a year earlier.

Profits in the mining sector dropped 56.3% in the first ten months of the year from a year earlier, while manufacturing profits rose 3.8%.

West Texas Intermediate futures for January delivery fell to $42.45 (-1.37%), while Brent crude declined to $45.30 (-0.35%) after disappointing data from China signaled that the world's second-biggest oil consumer was unlikely to boost demand and help defeat the global supply glut.

The recently renewed geopolitical risk did little to support crude. Many analysts believe that these tensions don't threat oil facilities in the Middle East and supplies remain ample.

Gold declined to $1,066.70 (-0.28%) as weak data from top consumer China raised concerns over demand and recent robust data on the U.S. economy reaffirmed expectations for a rate hike in December. Higher rates would harm demand for the non-interest-paying precious metal.
