Gold rallied to a fresh
nine-month high on Friday, inching towards the key $700 an ounce level as

ounce, platinum touched a new three-month high at $1,236 and
palladium saw $354, its highest since September 6. The silver ETF, iShares Silver Trust (SLV) was up 2.5% today.
Spot gold was at $686.40, the highest since May 19. Late in New
York on Thursday it was at $677.30. Gold has gained more than 12 percent since hitting a
two-month low of $601.70 on January 5.
