GOLD It appears that the recent sell off in the Platinum and Palladium prices has affected Gold and Silver negatively. The Platinum price is now at a six-year low and is trading at a $105.00 discount to Gold. It appears that Gold/Silver is treading water awaiting the Federal Reserve announcement and Chairman Yellen’s news briefing scheduled for later today. At...

GOLD This morning’s combination of little progress with the Greek debt crisis, and a report of U.S. industrial production falling by 0.2% in May, has resulted in a nice rally in the Gold price. The Gold price continues to stay within the $1,180 to $1,220 trading range. Today’s U.S. industrial production report included a revision for April showing a 0.5...

GOLD After a three day rally, the Gold price took a breather and sold off on light selling; the selling was caused by strong U.S. economic data. U.S. retail sales increased 1.2% in May, topping the 1.1% growth expected by economists. Plus, U.S. import prices rose in May, after 10 months of declines, while the weekly jobless claims rose slightly...

At 11am PDT today, Gold is trading at $1,187, up $9 per ounce on excellent volume. SILVER Considering today’s $9 Gold rally, the Silver price disappointingly is not moving higher. Plus, the Silver/Gold...

GOLD The U.S. economy added 280,000 jobs last month, the best month of 2015. This news caused Gold to continue its recent decline, reaching a low of $1,162.70 before finding fresh bargain buyers. If Gold doesn’t find major support in Asia on Monday, it could test the 2015 low of $1,141.60 per ounce. Gold reached that low on March 17th...
