NEW YORK (MarketWatch) -- Gold futures rose more than 5% Monday to above $900 an ounce, as a $700-billion government plan to rescue the financial sector pressured the U.S. dollar, increasing the metal's appeal as an alternative investment. Gold for December delivery rose $44.30, or 5.1%, to close at $909 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. Other precious metals also moved higher.
