For the time being, the report of a trade deal with China is keeping the price of Gold stationary. The price of Gold is in a need of recharge, and that doesn’t seem likely, for the moment.
A positive outlook for global growth on the back of a trade deal, could see precious metal prices decline further as investors leave their metal investments and head back into the Equity Markets.
The Dollar Index trading was in a somewhat tight range over night, helping to keep the price of Gold in its place.
My concern going forward, is in the developments in the Brexit negotiations. Depending on the outcome it could have a significant effect on the Euro and the Pound Sterling. In the event it truly gets chaotic, and that’s not too far from happening now, it could boost the U.S. Dollar and in turn hurt the price of Gold.
However, the key word when discussing global markets these days appears to be chaos, and economic doubt could also lead to safe haven buying.
Platinum
The long-term resistance level in Platinum was reached and penetrated overnight at $855, giving investors in that market the confidence that higher prices are a good possibility in the near term.
Palladium
Not too much to report in the Palladium market as fundaments and the EFP remain steady. EFP was last quoted at minus 40 minus 20.
Silver
CME Silver Warehouse stocks continue to climb, now between eligible and registered, are approaching 307 million ounces.
Have a wonderful Wednesday.
