The price of gold fell for the third day in a row on Friday, selling off from its early week highs as the dollar strengthened and political events around the world failed to motivate haven buyers.

Gold for August delivery fell 0.6%, to $1,271.40 a troy ounce, on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange, closing at the lowest level since June 1.

Copper for July delivery, meanwhile, jumped 1.5%, to $2.6495 a pound, in New York, as supply-side problems in South America and Indonesia continued to boost prices to a one-month high.

Investors had been pricing in risk surrounding former Federal Bureau of Investigation Director James Comey’s Senate committee testimony, the European Central Bank’s rates decision, and the U.K. general election, all of which took place Thursday.

Of those three events, traders had guided for most risk around events at the Senate committee meeting, but neither Mr. Comey’s appearance nor the ECB decision yielded many surprises, according to ETF Securities’s Nitesh Shah.
