NEW YORK (AP) -- Gold prices bounded higher Thursday, nearing the $1,000 mark for the first time since February.

Other metals followed gold higher. Energy futures wavered, while grains slipped.

Gold for December delivery jumped $19.20, or 2 percent, to $997.70 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange, after earlier hitting a six-month high of $999.50.
