Gold prices retreated on Friday to $4,240.75 per ounce after reaching an all-time high of $4,300 on Thursday.

The pullback was driven by profit-taking and financial market headwinds, including a strengthening US Dollar Index and rising US Treasury bond yields.

Rising oil prices also added to the selling pressure, but geopolitical tensions in the Middle East continued to provide support for gold prices.

Investors are now closely watching the release of US nonfarm payrolls data tonight, which will have a significant impact on the direction of monetary policy and the outlook for gold.
