(Reuters) - Gold rallied 1 percent to hit a two-month high on Tuesday, its biggest one-day gain in nearly three weeks, as investors kept piling into the safe-haven asset due to growing anxiety over the economic recovery.
Bullion surged more than 6 percent in August, its biggest monthly gain since November.
"The gold market has seen very strong alternative asset demand throughout the month of August. There is just a great level of uncertainty surrounding the economy going forward, and gold is continuing its role as the currency of choice," said Bill O'Neill, partner at New Jersey-based commodities firm LOGIC Advisors.
