Gold prices slip as stocks, U.S. dollar and yields rise

Gold prices sip early Wednesday “Gold enjoyed some mild reprieve yesterday but continues to hover near its three month lows,” the analyst wrote.

Persistent optimism about the prospects of cures and treatments for COVID-19 has, at least momentarily, overshadowed a rapid acceleration in cases in the U.S. and elsewhere in the world, which would normally underpin a rise in bullion and its sister metal silver, dealers said.

The global tally for confirmed cases of the novel strain of coronavirus that causes COVID-19 climbed to 51.5 million on Wednesday, according to data aggregated by Johns Hopkins University , while the death toll rose to 1.3 million. The U.S. has the highest case tally in the world at 10.3 million and highest death toll at 239,695 or about a fifth of the global totals.

Still, global stocks were mostly higher early Wednesday, with the Dow Jones Industrial Average DJIA, +0.90% poised to reach near […]

Gold futures are rebounding on Tuesday after plunging more than $90 or nearly 5% the previous session as investors shifted their focus back to continued monetary policy support from worldwide central banks to revive a pandemic-hit global economy. Gold tumbled on Monday as optimism for a COVID-19 vaccine lifted appetite for riskier assets.

At 13:47 GMT, December gold futures are trading $1873.30, up $18.90 or +1.02%. Steep Sell-off on Monday, but Bullish Issues Remain

Prices fell more than 5% at some point on Monday after U.S. drugmaker Pfizer Inc announced its COVID-19 vaccine was more than 90% effective based on initial trial results. The news fueled a repricing of assets as investors sold U.S. Treasury Bonds, bought equities and the U.S. Dollar. Interest rates spiked higher and demand for dollar-denominated gold fell.

Nonetheless, while vaccine optimism boosted risk appetite, concerns emerged over a mass roll-out of the new vaccine amid lingering […]

Gold price retreats as US voting stretches on

Gold price retreats as US voting stretches on

Image courtesy of the Trump Statue Initiative. With millions of ballots still to be counted, Donald Trump claimed early Wednesday he had won re-election and said he would ask the Supreme Court to intervene.

Earlier, Joe Biden said he was “on track to win this election.” While his chances of an Electoral College victory have improved as votes come in, it looks likely that the final result may not be known for some time.

A Biden victory could pave the way for the roll-out of more fiscal stimulus that could lift equity and commodity markets — particularly gold, which benefits from a weaker dollar due to money printing — in the near term.

“Delays to any conclusive outcome over the next few days should keep commodity-market volatility elevated as investors wait for more clarity,” said Darius Tabatabai, head of trading at Arion Investment Management Ltd.“The confidence that market participants had earlier about […]

PRECIOUS-Gold inches higher on stimulus hopes, virus concerns

Credit: REUTERS/STAFF Nov 11 (Reuters) – Gold prices edged higher on Wednesday supported by hopes of more U.S. stimulus measures as surging COVID-19 cases threaten to hamper economic recovery, although optimism over vaccine developments limited gains.

Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD eyes $1,848 after covid vaccine news โ€“ Confluence Detector

Gold has been on a free-fall since Pfizer announced that its COVID-19 vaccine candidate has proven to have a 90% efficiency rate. Moreover, the pharmaceutical firm’s approach is also used by other companies, and other vaccines could also win approval afterward .

Immunization optimism makes fiscal and monetary stimulus less urgent than it used to be, and that is adverse news for the precious metal.

How is XAU/USD positioned on the technical charts?

The Technical Confluences Indicator is showing that significant support awaits at $ 1,848 , which is where the Pivot Point one-month Support 1 hits the price.It is followed by $ 1,841 , which is where the PP one-week S2 and the Bollinger Band 15min-Lower converge.Looking up, immediate resistance is at $ 1,860 , which is the confluence of the previous 1h-low, the previous monthly low, and the BB one-day Lower.The most notable upside target is $ 1,877 , which […]

( Kitco News ) – Gold and silver futures prices are posting decent gains Tuesday morning, following the strong losses posted Monday. The precious metals bulls are now trying to steady their markets and working to prevent more serious chart damage from being inflicted.

Gold prices pop higher a day after sharpest daily drop in 7 years

Gold prices pop higher a day after sharpest daily drop in 7 years

Allison Joyce/Getty Images Gold futures were rising early Tuesday, as the precious metal attempted to recover a portion of the decline from the sharpest daily drop in seven years on Monday.

The yellow metal’s decline was prompted by a Pfizer-BioNTech PFE, +7.69% BNTX, +13.91% report that their experimental coronavirus vaccine showed 90% efficacy in Phase 3 study. However, bullion investors may be reasoning that the commodity fell too sharply and that some of the supportive elements that have helped buttress gold over the past several weeks and months persist.

“It seemed that at this point investors realized that central banks will still be forced to print money and the crisis is not over yet,” wrote Carlo Alberto De Casa, chief analyst ActivTrades in a note.

“Despite yesterday’s drama, the price may yet still remain in the lateral phase of the last few weeks,” the commodity strategist wrote.December gold GCZ20, +1.18% GOLD, -6.82% […]

(Kitco News) After shedding $100 within hours, the gold price is back in recovery mode Tuesday, and that is to be expected, according to Commerzbank, which says it’s too early to rule out coronavirus from the equation.

"It is still too early to dismiss the threat posed by corona," said Commerzbank analyst Carsten Fritsch. "It will take some time yet for sufficient quantities of any vaccine to be made available and for widespread immunization to be achieved."

Monday’s news of progress in the development of a COVID-19 vaccine has sent precious metals lower and stocks higher as investors began to price in less stimulus in the future.

Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD rebounds from Fibo support, stays below $1,900

Gold Price Analysis: XAU/USD rebounds from Fibo support, stays below $1,900

Gold is staging a rebound following Monday’s slump.

XAU/USD stays below a cluster of moving averages.

A daily close below $1,850 could cause the outlook to turn bearish.

After climbing to its highest level since mid-September at $1,965 on Monday, the XAU/USD pair made a sharp U-turn and suffered its largest daily percentage decline since early August. The pair closed at $1,861 and lost 4.58% but started to erase its losses on Tuesday. As of writing, XAU/USD was up 1.2% on the day at $1,884. Gold technical outlook Despite Tuesday’s rebound, XAU/USD continues to trade below the 20-day, 50-day and 100-day SMAs, which are currently located around $1,900 psychological level. Additionally, the Fibonacci 50% retracement of the June-August uptrend is reinforcing this resistance area. Meanwhile, the Relative Strength Index (RSI) indicator on the daily chart stays below 50, suggesting that the pair is making a technical […]

Gold price is in a new chart pattern and there is no telling how high it will go – Wells Fargo

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) – The gold market has been stuck in a fairly narrow range for nearly two months, and time is quickly running out if the precious metal is going to see a new high above $2,000 an ounce by year-end.

However, one market analyst says that gold’s destination is less important than the journey that it is currently on. In a recent interview with Kitco News, John LaForge, head of real asset strategy at Wells Fargo, said that he is maintaining his updated year-end target at $2,100 an ounce; however, he added that time is running out to achieve that goal. Rather than looking at year-end targets, he said that investors should pay attention to the long-term uptrend.

Gold Price Futures (GC) Technical Analysis โ€“ Could Strengthen Over $1889.70, Weaken Under $1842.60

Gold futures edged higher on Tuesday, but gains were likely limited by a slightly stronger U.S. Dollar and steady-to-higher U.S. Treasury yields.

However, shares eased on Tuesday as worries about the extent of the COVID-19 pandemic’s economic impact resurfaced. This helped underpin gold prices.

( Kitco News ) – Gold has found some support at the consolidation low of $1850 per once. If this level breaks on the downside then the next major support zone is at the green line ($1788.8). This level was the resistance back in April and was pretty stubborn at the time. There is another support zone to look out for and it is the red line under the current price level which connects the wave low from 12th August and 25th September. This is not the strongest trendline in the world as it only has two touches but it cannot be ignored. The silver chart is also looking pretty bearish. It’s hard to know if this […]

Gold has attempted a recovery after being hit hard by the news of a breakthrough in developing a coronavirus vaccine.
