Gold traded near $1,300 an ounce, set for a weekly drop, as investors weighed tentative signals of a U.S. recovery against the risk of conflict in Ukraine and geopolitical tension. Silver, platinum and palladium are all marginally lower. Prices reversed losses after Ukraine accused Russia of fueling terrorism in its eastern provinces. The metal is 1.3% lower this week and may snap a two-week advance. However, shorts will be nervous heading into a long holiday weekend with the potential for headline risk. Full Story

Gold was pinned at $1,300 an ounce, well off Monday's high at $1,330.90. The sharp sudden price fall yesterday in early afternoon trade in London (see chart) was attributed to more peculiar computer-driven concentrated selling of huge tranches of gold futures contracts on the COMEX, which then saw heavy stop-loss orders placed by momentum traders.

After Mario Draghi’s confirming that he wants to see a weaker euro, the market has obliged by pulling it back from its recent peak just under $1.40: €1 to $1.38: €1. If gold is moved in the same way as gold, we come to $1,307. This is where the gold price is now. We did not see selling of gold to press the gold price down, but dealer’s adjustment of prices in line with the dollar’s strength. Like the waves on the seashore the gold price fell but we believe this will bring in Asian buyers allowing the gold price to move higher after the current consolidation is complete. Full Story

Gold and silver are looking poised for another big rally. I do not understand the reasons for a weaker US dollar. Ukraine tensions and bullying by the USA and its allies in the past few years has not gone down well with world leaders. They are indirectly, overtly and covertly trying to reduce the usage of the US dollar. Example of recent bullying is last year in the pretext of tapering, there was emerging market selloff and near break down of emerging market currencies.
