Oil prices rose on Thursday
Gold was set for a tenth straight quarterly gain on Thursday, rising by nearly 1 percent as the dollar weakened and concern over euro zone sovereign debt and unrest across the Middle East encouraged buying. Copper rose on Thursday as dollar weakness attracted non-U.S. buyers after earlier hitting a two-week low on worries about soft Chinese demand.
