The price of gold fluctuated around the $5,000 level all week, ending strongly as the likelihood of the US attacking Iran increased as the US was confirmed at considering a “limited first strike” to pursuade the Iranians to make a deal.
Silver and palladium also had a good week, but platinum reversed on higher inventory news.
