Comment: Gold was down on Friday morning in Asia, recovering from the more than one-week low hit during the previous session. Retreating U.S. bond yields and weaker-than-expected U.S. economic data also helped to counter a strengthening dollar. Meanwhile, the latest U.S. economic data said that a higher-than-expected 419,000 initial jobless claims were filed throughout the past week, a two-month high. The figure served as a grim reminder that the job market recovery is far from over, as the country also recorded a surge in new COVID-19 cases involving the Delta variant.
