Recaping of gold prices 27.-31.
Happy Friday, merchants. Welcome to our weekly wrapping on the market, where we look back at these last five trade days with focus on market news, economic data and titles that have most influenced the prices of gold and other key correlated property – and can continue until that in the future.
The prices of gold on Friday morning are trying to stay and consolidate the winnings above the record level of $ 2800/oz at the tail end of the unstable trading week.
Regardless of how yellow metal will trade next days, Monday, was the same moment for the prices of gold as for many other main classes of assets. The collapse of the technology sector into two of the three key American stock market index has transformed most of the financial media for the day into the sea. Since traders and portfolio managers have been pushed around the world to set up demands for Marz, gold positions were the first opportunity to relief for many. The heavy liquidation of gold positions for cash weighed on the prices of metal, offers from the introductory line to $ 2765 on a weekly trough of $ 2730/Oz.
Despite the rude start and even the generally accepted assumption that FOMC will not bring another consecutive rate of reduction this week, it is a little worried that Slide has been foreseen on Monday throughout the week of ugly losses for gold. This is because the market was still expected that the key initiator of all property assessments – but especially the US dollar and its treasury work – would be reactions to the continuous course of announcement and actions taken by the new US administration in the second week. The assessment proved to be true, and the consistent port of the global economic insecurity created by Trump’s White House allowed gold to be a little on Monday afternoon, then holding a stable level of 2740 USD/Oz until Tuesday morning before trading at FOMC.
Fomc delivered widely as expected, although what was generally hawk, objectively speaking, the decision and statement of the Inversion Committee and traders broke up into parts and eventually switched to a modest tail wind for gold. Fed announced that he had not changed politics rates, and for the first time he was standing on three meetings. What is crucial, the Committee’s statement emphasized the pink view of the current labor market (removal of what would be the pressure of further pressure) and eliminated the objection to achieving the “progress” according to the goal of the Fed inflation (attachment of stubbornness, if not the risk of recurrence Inflation pressures.) In the vacuum we would expect this to be another strike against the recent Gold rise to record high, as it is pushed beyond the likelihood of FOMC, which has decided to make more than two decreasing rates currently designing for projects 2025.
