Gold heads for modest weekly gain as investors await US payrolls data

Gold prices were steady on Friday and poised for a modest weekly gain, as traders' attention turned to key U.S. payrolls data for clues on the Federal Reserve's next interest rate decision.

Spot gold held its ground at $4,469.26 per ounce, as of 0633 GMT. Prices jumped 2% on Thursday as traders scaled back expectations for a September rate hike after Fed Governor Christopher Waller said he would support leaving rates unchanged if data continued to show inflation pressures moderating.
