Gold posts 5% monthly gain
FXStreet (Córdoba) - Gold prices ended Friday higher despite a stronger dollar, with the yellow metal posting a monthly gain in January helped by its safe-haven condition.
A strong risk-averse environment during the first weeks of the year, amid turmoil in Chinese markets, increased the appeal for safety and underpinned the metal off multi-year lows scored in December.
Gold closed Friday just above $1,116,0.18% higher on the day, posting a 1.64% weekly advance and a gain of over 5% for the month.
