GOLD As I mentioned in last Friday’s blog, the Asian buyers love cheap Gold and jumped all over Gold this morning when it opened at $1,235 per ounce. The heavy Gold buying quickly took the price up to $1,244 per ounce. I would like to see Gold break back above $1,250 by Wednesday. At 11am PST today, Gold is trading...

GOLD A combination of a strong U.S. Jobs report (257,000 new jobs in January), a drop in Chinese Gold consumption for the last quarter of 2014, and a strong U.S. Dollar versus the Euro, caused Gold to drop today. This morning Gold fell to $1,228 before finding major support. Today’s decline came with the highest CME trading volume for the...

GOLD Gold continues to build a base in the $1,250 to $1,280 per ounce area. Considering January’s $100 Gold rally from the 2014 lows, this is very healthy for the market.

GOLD Gold has traded between $1,266 and $1,283 per ounce today. The Gold price is establishing an excellent base above the key $1,250 per ounce support level. After speaking with many professional traders and looking at the extraordinary demand, I feel Gold will break back above the $1,300 per ounce resistance level very soon. After a short period of consolidation...

GOLD The U.S. GDP numbers were released today and showed that the U.S. economy only grew 2.6% in the final three months of 2014. This growth rate was slower than had been forecast. The preliminary U.S. GDP was expected to show the growth rate only slowing to  3% in Q4, compared to the 5% GDP recorded in Q3 2014. Gold...

GOLD Gold was hit with heavy short term selling this morning. The heavy selling resulted from news of Germany falling into a deflationary cycle, Denmark cutting its interest rates for the third time in 10 days, and the U.S. labor department reporting that jobless claims fell to the lowest level since 2000. At 11am PST today, Gold is trading at...
