Stalled Nuclear Talks Push Up Forex, Gold to 14-Month High

The currency market in Tehran was highly volatile on Saturday, apparently riven by negative political developments that sent forex and gold prices to the highest in past 14 months.
The dollar crossed above the psychological 300,000-rials in the open market, jumping 8,600 rials or 2.85% in one day to settle at 301,600 rials, according to the Persian-language economic website Eqtesad News.
