Mint raising prices on annual sets, America the Beautiful quarter dollar products . . . .

This Gold rally continues to show excellent demand as many professional traders are becoming believers . . . .

The US dollar weakened across the board after the release of the US employment report and pushed gold to the upside. The metal rose $6 in a few seconds, from $1316/oz to $1323 to test daily highs . . . .

Gold sold off in early Asian trading this morning, reaching a low of $1,305 per ounce before seeing renewed buying . . . .

Today we are seeing Gold slightly up as we approach the 11am PST release of the minutes . . . .

What a great year-end rally for Gold! During December, Gold rallied from a 5-month low of $1,235 on Dec. 12 to close the year at $1,306.30 on Friday Dec. 29 . . . .

It’s great to start off the New Year with Gold up for the 8th straight session in a row and holding above the $1,300 per ounce support level . . . .

Gold prices should see a steady rise in 2018 as inflation picks up and competition from equity markets slows down, according to George Gero, managing director at RBC Wealth Management . . . .

The Gold price started 2017 at $1,150 per ounce and  is closing 2017 at $1,303, a 13.03% increase. The largest annual percentage increase since 2010 . . . .

Gold hit its highest in 2-1/2 months on Friday and remained on track for its biggest annual rise since 2010 as a wilting dollar, political tensions and receding concerns over the impact of U.S. interest rate hikes fed into its rally . . . .
