Gold moved higher late Friday in U.S. after-market transactions and traded between $1,182 and $1,190 per ounce this morning in Asian and European trading . . . .

Last week Gold briefly traded at a low of $1,160 per ounce, a low not seen since December of 2016 . . . .

Today Gold has traded between $1,170 and $1,180 per ounce, as it stabilizes from a week of high volatility . . . .

As the U.S. Dollar Index stayed above the 96.50 level and started moving to 97, the price of Gold dropped to $1,160 per ounce, a 20-month low . . . .

Wow, this definitely was the final clean out of Gold commodity investors . . . .

Gold has traded below $1,200 all day, with a low of $1,192 and heavy trading volume . . . .

Gold reached a low of $1,196 in Europe this morning as the Turkish currency crisis is driving non-U.S. currencies and precious metals lower . . . .

I think last Friday was a turning point in the downward trend that we have seen in the Gold and Silver price. Our President raised aluminum/steel tariffs on Turkey, which caused a Turkish currency crisis . . . .

Exciting day… Our President raised aluminum/steel tariffs on Turkey, which caused a Turkish currency crisis. The U.S. Dollar index soared above 96 this morning (14-month high) then Gold, currency, and equity markets sold off . . . .

As the Trade War continues to dominate the news, the U.S. Dollar continues to make new highs, with the Index at a new 2 year high of 95.50 . . . .
