Meanwhile, the US dollar weakened following Moody’s downgrade, helping gold prices surge.

Wall Street ended the week on a high note, marking its fifth consecutive day of gains despite US consumer sentiment sinking to its second-lowest level on record.

Oil prices managed to secure a second straight week of gains, but gold suffered its worst weekly decline since November.
