    SAN FRANCISCO (MarketWatch) Gold futures on Monday fell to their lowest in two weeks as concerns about French banks sparked a stock selloff and spurred investors to sell other assets to cover losses.

    Gold for December delivery GC1Z -2.23% was down $46.20, or 2.5%, at $1,813.30 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange.

    "Gold sell stops are being placed as asset managers need to raise cash to stem portfolio losses,"
    wrote George Gero, vice president in global futures at RBC Capital Markets, in emailed comments.
