πΉGold prices jumped on Friday, May 10, and are on track to record weekly gains supported by momentum thanks to weak US jobs data this week.
Gold rose in spot transactions by 0.71% to $2,362.49 per ounce. US gold futures contracts for June delivery also rose by 1.26% to $2,369.60.
Gold rose more than 1% on Thursday after data showed that the number of Americans filing new applications for unemployment benefits increased more than expected last week.
Investors are now awaiting the Producer Price Index and Consumer Price Index data in the United States next week, and the data of both indexes may affect the prices of gold and silver.
