Gold Futures Fall For The Session, But Edge Up For The Week

Gold futures settled lower on Friday as some strength in the U.S. dollar put pressure on prices. The yellow metal, however, posted a gain of roughly 0.3% for the week, rebounding a bit from a loss of 5% in the previous week, which was the largest such loss in more than three years. December gold fell $2.10, or 0.2%, for the session to settle at $1,255.50 an ounce.
