Gold poised for best week since early May as dollar, yields ease

Gold was set on Friday for its best week in more than five months as a retreat in the U.S. dollar and Treasury yields lifted the metal's appeal despite a looming Federal Reserve taper. Spot gold held steady at $1,794.09 per ounce by 0115 GMT but was up 2.1% for the week so far. On Thursday, prices hit a one-month high of $1,800.12.
