Gold ticked up Thursday but still down for the week

U.S. gold futures — exchange deals to deliver later — settled at $4,321.20 on Sept. 25, up 0.5% on the day, Reuters reported. Gold bought now — like paying at the checkout versus pre-ordering — was still down about 2.1% for the week, Reuters reported. I don't see a turnaround; one up day doesn't erase a down week for holders.
