Gold futures dropped on Thursday, with a climb in U.S. equities and strength in the dollar dulling investment demand for the metal. April gold GCJ4 +0.06% shed $19.70, or 1.6%, to settle at $1,242.50 an ounce on the Comex division of the New York Mercantile Exchange. The continued march forward by the Fed with its tapering program caught a few people offguard on Wednesday, though it shouldn't have, given the strong economic growth the U.S. is enjoying, said Richard Gotterer, managing director at Wescott Financial Advisory.

Ratings in the CCC category are generally viewed as poor quality with likelihood of default. The outlook on the ratings is negative.
