Gold Prices Rise on Surging Euro - Yahoo! News: "CHICAGO - Gold prices rose Friday, drawing support from a U.S. jobs report that sent the euro soaring to a one-year high.
June gold rose to $686.50 an ounce on the New York Mercantile Exchange moments after the monthly report on U.S. non-farm payrolls, stopping just shy of the fresh 25-year high of $687 hit in overnight trading.
In mid-morning trading, the contract was at $680.50 an ounce, up $4 from a day earlier.
July silver was up 5.5 cents to $13.88 an ounce after an overnight high of $14.14.
The gains are due to 'sheer momentum, combined with a weakening U.S. dollar and no real sign of any lessening of the geopolitical tensions worldwide,' said Peter Grandich, analyst and publisher of the Grandich Letter."
