Gold stayed near $5,190–$5,200 on Friday. It is heading for a fourth straight weekly gain. Geopolitical tensions and trade uncertainty continue to support safe-haven demand.

Investors are watching the U.S.–Iran nuclear talks closely. President Trump set an early March deadline. At the same time, new U.S. tariffs and the risk of further increases are adding uncertainty.
