Still, prices are, \"unlikely to fall far. Article continues below This is because anyone who wanted to sell gold is likely to have done so in the second half of last week.\" Immediate delivery gold fell $1.08, or 0.1 per cent, to $1,511.22 an ounce by 11.30am in London. The metal is up 5.5 per cent since March 31. Gold for August delivery was up 0.1 per cent at $1,511.70 an ounce on the Comex in New York.

Papandreou\'s win in the his country\'s second ballot will allow him to execute measures ranging from tax increases to asset sales.
