Volatility to continue to dominate gold prices:
``We continue to expect that gold prices will rise over the coming period, however, we also expect volatility to continue to dominate gold prices over the short term, as despite the recent improvement in overall conditions, yet risks are still threatening the progress of improvement, especially as the outlook for global economies remains full of uncertainty. We also expect Europe to continue to dominate the headlines next week, where developments in France, Italy and Spain should dominate the sentiment in markets,`` said Mitesh Rasaikar, CEO, Maya Iron Ores.
Gold prices declined on weaker demand and dealers expect volatility to persist with a firming US dollar weighing on sentiment.
