Gold prices arrested this week’s slide on Friday to rise nearly 1 percent ahead of a speech from Federal Reserve chairman Ben Bernanke in Jackson Hole, Wyoming, later, which will be closely watched for hints on the outlook for Fed monetary policy.

The metal is still set for its first weekly loss in eight, however, as investors took profits after its surge to record highs at $1,911.46 on Tuesday. Volatility spiked, with prices sliding more than $200 from that level by Thursday.

They have since recovered, with spot gold up 1 percent at $1,786.86 an ounce at 0921 GMT.

“Volatility… is some 65 percent higher than the 2010 average,” said Ole Hansen, senior manager at Saxo Bank. “That tells us that despite the uptrend being firmly intact, we have to expect violent corrections as we move along.”
