Gold rises above 300 dollars after US rates cut Gold rises above 300 dollars after US rates cut LONDON, Oct 16 (AFP) - Gold rose above the 300 dollars an ounce level mid-morning Friday on the London Bullion Market in response to the surprise overnight cut in US interest rates. Gold was being traded at 300.55 dollars an ounce, up from 297.85 dollars at close on Thursday.
