Gold Had a Roller Coaster Week

Gold had a roller-coaster week, topping $2,000 an ounce again last Tuesday, August 18, as the U.S. Dollar dropped to its lowest point in two years, falling over 10% in a 5-month period since March 18.  Then, gold drifted lower as the dollar rallied. On Friday morning, August 21, gold fell from $1,950 down to $1,910 before rallying back above $1,940 as U.S. initial jobless claims climbed back above 1 million again.
