Gold prices were headed for their
third straight week of gains on Friday ahead of the much-awaited
U.S. non-farm payrolls data, supported by strong safe-haven
inflows and prospects for lower U.S..
Spot gold was up 0.1% at $2,291.20 per ounce, as of 1214 GMT, after hitting a record high of $2,305.04 on Thursday. Bullion has risen 2.6% so far this week.
Gold prices were flat in light trading
on Friday with Chinese markets closed for the Lunar New Year
break, while a firm dollar offset safe-haven demand fuelled by
Middle East concerns. . -February 08, 2024 at 11:46 pm EST
