Gold prices ended a volatile week on a higher note on Friday as bets on a pause in Federal Reserve rate hikes and fears of bank contagion boosted safe-haven demand.

On Friday, banking shares were shattered once more due to concerns that regulators and central banks have yet to contain the sector’s worst shock since the 2008 financial crisis, which saw the collapse of European giants UBS and Deutsche Bank.

RJO Futures senior market strategist Bob Haberkorn stated, “Any concern that pops up about U.S. banks being undercapitalized is going to be a factor for gold to rise.” In this environment, the dips you see will be bought up quickly.
