Copper and gold struggle in the EU session
( Kitco News ) – Copper has been moving lower in the EU session leading into the North American open. The US markets are closed due to a public holiday but that has not stopped the price falling 1.28%.
The green support level at $3.0980 per pound has held firm so far. Beyond that there are two key areas to watch. The mean value area where most contracts have been traded (at $3.07). Below that there is another level near $3.02 that could stem the losses too.
On the topside, the previous wave high is the target for the bulls. $3.2080 is the point at which the bull trend is back on.

Can a covid vaccine kill silver and gold?
Believe it or not, the big deal for precious metals this week was not the U.S. Election. It was news that Pfizer and BioNTech’s COVID-19 vaccine was over 90% effective in preventing the virus, and would likely be among the first to receive FDA authorization.
Monday was massively risk-on, with the Dow soaring 4% to a new record high, ten-year treasuries yields shot up almost 17% in a single day as investors dumped bonds, and oil was ahead 8%.
Meanwhile, the U.S. dollar index gained about 60 basis points or 0.65%, while higher-beta currencies jumped.
Gold and silver both sold off quite strongly and stayed near their lower price levels.Naturally, some gold and silver enthusiasts are asking themselves if a vaccine is enough to kill the Covid-19 virus, as well as the precious metals bull market.And based on the initial reaction of these metals, it’s a natural question.So let’s look at the […]
COVID-19 vaccine is ‘a boon for gold bugs’ – TD Securities
( Kitco News ) – Once markets get past all the noise, the COVID-19 vaccine is good news for gold, according to TD Securities.
"Vaccine should ultimately be a boon for gold bugs, as the Fed could keep nominal rates capped while inflation expectations could firm further as a result," TD Securities strategists wrote on Wednesday.
The first response to positive vaccine news was a rally in stocks, and bond yields, while the precious metals tumbled down. The reason for that was because markets are beginning to price in the end of the pandemic even though serious questions about the potential vaccine rollout still remained.
"The positive news on the vaccine sent ten-year yields to their highest since the pandemic began. However, the rise in yields has been accompanied by strengthening in equities and tighter credit spreads, keeping financial conditions uber-loose, which raises questions as to why the Fed should intervene," TD’s […]
Gold is still inching toward record high levels despite volatility
New York (CNN Business)Gold prices tumbled on Monday after the Pfizer-BioNTech coronavirus vaccine news sparked a broader market rally . Investors fled safe haven assets like gold, which had surged on worries about the pandemic.
But the price of the gold is still hovering just under $1,900 an ounce — not far from all-time highs above $2,000 earlier this year.
While gold has been volatile, it has benefited from many of the same trends that have lifted bitcoin as well as silver, platinum and other precious metals the past few months. And many analysts are confident gold will just keep on climbing.
The Federal Reserve is likely to keep rates low , even in a Joe Biden administration That will hurt the dollar and make alternative currencies more attractive. Bitcoin surges above $15,000 and is closing in on record More stimulus would bolster the economy, and that could push gold even higher […]
The U.S. election is still more important for gold than vaccine news – Wilshire Phoenix
(Kitco News) – The gold market is once again struggling to find momentum as investors continue to focus on a possible vaccine to eradicate the COVID-19 virus that has devastated lives around the world.
However, one fund manager said that it is still too early to celebrate a potential vaccine, and instead, investors should continue to focus on gold as Democratic nominee Joe Biden continues to solidify his role as president-elect.
William Cai, a partner at Wilshire Phoenix, said that he thinks the election is still a much bigger factor for gold than the announcement that Pfizer and BioNTech have a potential vaccine.
“Our view is that there are still a lot of questions surrounding this vaccine. It has to be kept really cold, so there is a question of how will even be rolled out,” he said. “The news doesn’t change the view on the ground when it comes to the […]

Golden ticket: Researchers examine what consumers desire in chocolate products
Gold foil, ornate labels and an intriguing backstory are product characteristics highly desired by premium chocolate consumers, according to research conducted by food scientists in Penn State’s College of Agricultural Sciences.
The study is one of the first to thoroughly research what American premium chocolate consumers find to be desirable attributes in their chocolate bars. An additional focus was on these consumers’ perceptions of craft chocolate, which is made from scratch — bean to bar — by small companies using fine flavor cocoa beans.
Much like craft beer and specialty coffee, craft chocolate is gaining popularity among consumers who are seeking a unique experience, noted lead researcher Allison Brown, food science doctoral candidate in the college’s International Agriculture and Development dual-title degree program.
She added that study outcomes, which were published in the journal PLOS ONE , will aid craft chocolate companies when making decisions about product development and marketing."The U.S. craft […]

Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD surrenders early modest gains, flat-lined below $1880 level
Gold gained traction for the second consecutive session on Tuesday.
Weaker US, sliding US bond yields remained supportive of the uptick.
The risk-on mood kept a lid on any meaningful upside for the metal.
Gold surrendered a major part of its early gains to the $1884-85 region and was last seen hovering around the $1878-75 zone, nearly unchanged for the day.Following the previous day’s intraday pullback from the $1890 region, the precious metal caught some fresh bids for the second straight session and was being supported by a combination of factors. The euphoric market reaction to the positive COVID-19 vaccine news faded rather quickly amid questions over the efficacy and the length of immunity provided.Adding to this, concerns about the continuous surge in new infections in the US and the imposition of stricter restrictions in several US states revived hopes a substantial stimulus package to support […]
Gold Turns Lower Again as Dollar and Stocks Strengthen
(Bloomberg) — Gold declined, wiping out Tuesday’s gains, as the dollar strengthened and defensive shares pushed up equities in Europe.
Bullion rose on Tuesday, after slumping the most in three months the previous day as signs of a vaccine breakthrough hurt haven demand. Optimism over the vaccine that’s helping drive global stock markets higher led Goldman Sachs Group Inc. to boost its price targets for Europe’s main equities gauge and the S&P 500 Index.
A vaccination campaign could begin by spring, U.S. Health and Human Services Secretary Alex Azar said. Still, there are concerns that the pandemic is worsening in some countries. America reported a record number of infections Monday and may go on to hit the most hospitalizations yet later this week. The situation also looks dire in Europe amid rising fatalities in Germany. “The biggest reason for another abrupt drop in gold prices would be more good news on […]

Gold drops dramatically, as BioNTech and Pfizer announce vaccine trial results
Gold suffered this deepest single-day decline in the last seven years. Not since June 2013 has gold suffered a decline of this magnitude. The decline is a direct result of announcements made by two pharmaceutical companies, Pfizer and BioNTech which wrapped up stage III trials. The results showed that this vaccine had a 90% efficacy rate. The stage III trial administered the vaccine to 43,000 individuals, and the data concluded that the vaccine is 90% effective in preventing the coronavirus. Dr. Albert Bourla, Chairman and CEO of Pfizer said that “Today is a great day for science and humanity …The first set of results from our Phase 3 Covid-19 vaccine trial provides the initial evidence of our vaccine’s ability to prevent Covid-19.”
In a statement, he also said that the company is “reaching this critical milestone in our vaccine development program at a time when the world needs it most […]
Aggressive investors need to ‘favor oil over gold’ โ Goehring & Rozencwajg
Editor’s Note: Get caught up in minutes with our speedy summary of today’s must-read news stories and expert opinions that moved the precious metals and financial markets. Sign up here! (Kitco News) Oil will significantly outperform gold in the next five years, which is why aggressive investors need to start favoring the former over the latter, according to Goehring & Rozencwajg Associates.
“Oil has never been priced cheaper relative to gold and the underlying trends that have forced the massive divergence between gold and oil are about to be reversed,” said Goehring & Rozencwajg managing partners Leigh Goehring and Adam Rozencwajg. “For aggressive investors, we believe now is the time to continue favoring oil over gold.”
Oil’s plunge this year presents a rare opportunity to get into the space as it has never been so undervalued relative to gold. Only twice in history has oil been similarly cheap — in February […]

Gold: A โmustโ have asset in a portfolio
share Authored by Nitin Kabadi
The epitaph of gold as a long-term investment option has been written quite often and it has faced intense mockery too from some doyen of the investment world. For instance, now turned optimistic– Warren Buffet had once perceived that gold is a useless metal.
Contrary to the perception of skeptics, Gold has been able to maintain its shine by generating long-term positive returns in both good as well as bad times, in periods of inflation as well as deflation.
Looking back at almost half a century, the prices of gold have risen by an average of 10 percent per year, since 1971, when the iconic treaty of Bretton Woods collapsed where it linked the supply of dollars with the amount of gold in the coffers of the US central bank. In the last twenty years, gold has outperformed all asset classes ranging from the US bond […]

Gold prices edged higher on Wednesday, supported by a softer dollar, while concerns about surging Covid-19 cases in the United States and logistical challenges over the mass roll-out of a potential vaccine further bolstered the metal’s appeal.
Spot gold rose 0.3% to $1,882.06 per ounce by 0320 GMT.U.S. gold futures were up 0.2% at $1,880.20.The dollar index was down 0.1% against a basket of currencies, making gold more attractive to other currency holders.“The initial vaccine being proposed isn’t realistic … COVID-19 is still a problem and ultimately there will be further forms of stimulus and this will be positive for gold and negative for the dollar,” said Michael Langford, executive director at corporate advisory and consultancy firm AirGuide.

Whatโs Next for Gold?
So far this week, spot Gold prices have been whipsawed across a wide range exceeding $100. On Monday, it hit a near two-month high of $1965.59 before careening down to the $1850 mark, all within the same day. The precious metal dropped by as much as 5.85 percent on Monday, which erased all of Gold’s month-to-date gains, and more, while registering its largest single-day decline since August 11 th .
Despite the latest attempt to claw its way back up, Monday’s drastic drop leaves Gold below its 100-day simple moving average for the time being, with its 50-day moving average threatening to follow suit. For context, so far this year, Gold has not spent more than a week at a time trading below that key technical level, having recovered promptly after breaking below that mark in mid-March and in end-October.
However, with its three-month downtrend proving hard to shake off, and […]
Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD remains depressed near $1975 level, lacks follow-through
Gold struggled to preserve intraday gains and turned negative during the European session.
The risk-on mood, a modest USD uptick exerted some downward pressure on the commodity.
COVID-19 jitters, reviving hopes for US fiscal stimulus helped limit the downside for the metal.
Gold refreshed daily lows, around the $1870 region during the mid-European session, albeit lacked any follow-through selling. The commodity was last seen trading in the neutral territory, just above the $1975 level and remained well within the previous day’s broader trading range.The precious metal failed to capitalize on its early uptick, instead met with some fresh supply near the $1884-85 region and was being pressured by a combination of factors. The global risk sentiment remained well supported by the optimism over an effective vaccine for the highly contagious coronavirus disease. This was evident from the prevalent bullish tone around the equity markets, which undermined […]

( Kitco News ) – Gold and silver futures prices are moderately lower in early U.S. trading Wednesday. The metals are seeing some selling pressure from upbeat trader/investor risk appetite, evidenced by the rallies in global stock indexes at mid-week.
