Gold bars and gold coins of different sizes lie in a safe on a table at the precious metal dealer Pro Aurum. Gold was on track for a weekly loss, even as prices firmed on Friday ahead of a key U.S. inflation reading that could offer more cues on when the Federal Reserve will cut interest rates. "Last week, prices scaled record highs on bets of a September U.S. rate cut. The U.S. personal consumption expenditure data for June — the Federal Reserve's favored measure of inflation — is due at 1230 GMT. Meanwhile, India's demand for gold is likely to rise while moving into the fourth quarter, which is traditionally a robust seasonal period for gold demand," ANZ's Kumari said.

He's not doing all this out of the kindness of his heart; he's doing it because he wants the credit-card rewards. In a recent poll from Ipsos, 71% of Americans surveyed said they had some sort of rewards, points, or cash-back card, and 80% of those with such a card said they valued their rewards. But maybe we love our credit-card rewards too much, to the point that it's making us act in less-than-ideal ways toward those we hold near and dear. But credit-card rewards are, indeed, making things uncomfortable. I recently booked a fight with a friend who remarked she'd gotten some $300 in travel credit from her rewards card.

Gold prices fell more than 1% on Thursday as investors booked profits ahead of U.S. economic data that could offer more cues on when the central bank will cut interest rates this year and by how much. Spot gold fell 1.2% to $2,369.20 per ounce by 0533 GMT. So, it looks like we are seeing some profit-taking and from a technical perspective, prices could move lower," said Kelvin Wong, OANDA's senior market analyst for Asia Pacific. Traders are expecting that the Fed will deliver a long-awaited rate cut in September. If PCE data shows that inflation is slowing and the Fed can cut rates in September, then we will see a resurgence in gold prices, Wong said.
