Gold prices moved sideways edging slightly higher closing up approximately 0.25% for the week. This came as the dollar moved lower and Treasury yields took a break from their recent climb. A stronger than expected US Markit PMI index failed to further lift treasury yields. Germany’s manufacturing PMI rose to 58.0 from 56.4, which was better than expected.

Stock image “Gold is facing a bit of a headwind from the recent slight rise in real yields,” Nicholas Frappell, global general manager at Sydney-based ABC Bullion, said in a Bloomberg interview .
“Some investors are optimistic over the prospects for US growth. Others are seeing positioning ahead of a Democratic win and assuming that the fiscal consequences will drive bond prices lower and yields higher,” he added.
“Gold has been trapped between $1,930 and $1,880. It is waiting to take cues from the election and there’s this resurgence of the pandemic,” Phillip Streible, chief market strategist at Blue Line Futures in Chicago, told Reuters .

Why is gold price action on pause? Standard Chartered sees $2,100 level early next year
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) Gold is continuing to take its cues from the U.S. dollar as analysts focus more on the fiscal stimulus prospects rather than the election itself, according to Standard Chartered.
Even though the macro environment remains very supportive of higher gold prices, the precious metal is stuck at the $1,900 an ounce level, said Standard Chartered precious metals analyst Suki Cooper.
“Gold prices continue to oscillate around USD 1,900/oz, between the 50-day and 100-day moving averages, but continue to take their cues from macro drivers, predominantly the USD rather than real rates,” Cooper wrote on Friday. “We expect this to remain the case leading up to the U.S. presidential election.”

Gold Price Prediction – Prices Consolidate As the Dollar Rallies
Gold prices moved sideways despite a selloff in riskier assets, as stocks headed south on fears of continued COVID-19 spread. The dollar moved higher as risk aversion took hold. Treasury yields took a break from their recent climb, declining as riskier assets dropped. A weaker than expected September New Home Sales report weighed on yields, allowing gold prices to remain buoyed. Gold implied volatility which measures how much options traders believe the price will move remains elevated at 21% well off the highs seen in March near 55, but well off the average in 2019 which was closer to 13%.

A Blue wave in the Senate sends the gold price back above $2,000 – DailyFX.com
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 is in need of a new catalyst as prices continue to consolidate around $1,900 an ounce. With the U.S. election in the home stretch, many investors are hoping a fiscal stimulus package would be the spark to ignite a new rally.
In a telephone interview with Kitco News Friday, Christopher Vecchio, senior currency strategist at IG Group, said that if investors are looking for more stimulus aid then they should be paying close attention to the Senate election race because this is what will drive new government money into the economy.
"If Biden wins, but Republicans maintain hold of the Senate, then it will be difficult to pass new stimulus measures," he said. "The Senate […]

Election outcomes for gold price: from a slow grind higher to an explosive rally
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) With the U.S. election just one week away, volatility is rocking the financial markets, except for the gold sector, in which investors remain very cautious ahead of the big event.
There are four main scenarios investors are preparing for come election day — a Democratic sweep, a Trump win, a split Congress, or a contested election.
All of the above are likely to trigger higher gold prices in the long-term, but one might set off an "explosive" rally while others are likely to lead to a "slow grind higher," according to Pepperstone head of research Chris Weston.
"Longer-term, all roads lead to higher gold prices," Weston told Kitco News on Friday. Blue wave The most explosive scenario for gold would […]
Why it’s getting harder to mine gold
The price of gold has rocketed during the pandemic, but mining it is getting more difficult. Chris Baraniuk reports on challenges and controversy at one of the UK’s biggest planned mines.
F
For 1,000 days, the caravan stood with banners and placards pinned to its side: “We are not afraid. This is our land. This is our home. We will die for it.” Irish flags flutter in the wind. This is the anti-gold mine protest site set up by a group of locals in County Tyrone, Northern Ireland.
With 460 million-year-old veins of gold strewn hither and thither in the rock deep underfoot, the prospect of a mine in Curraghinalt, in a remote corner of the Sperrin mountains, has been talked about for decades – but it has never yet materialised. A recent application by a mining company to extract the seams of precious metal, has brought the prospect closer still. If […]
For years J.P. Morgan was skeptical of Bitcoin. Now the bank’s analysts say its value could triple, challenge gold
Our mission to help you navigate the new normal is fueled by subscribers. To enjoy unlimited access to our journalism, subscribe today . A team of analysts at J.P. Morgan’s Global Markets Strategy group are touting Bitcoin’s emergence as an alternative to gold among Millennials, suggesting a “doubling or tripling” in the price of the cryptocurrency if current trends continue. The prediction, which came in a research note published on Friday, is remarkable given the bank’s one-time skepticism towards Bitcoin, which included CEO Jamie Dimon calling it a “fraud” in 2017 and saying he would fire anyone trading it for being “stupid.”
J.P. Morgan’s recent bullish stance is driven in part by PayPal’s recent decision to offer Bitcoin to its customers, and Square’s recent decision to add $50 million of the cryptocurrency to its balance sheet. Another major factor for its position, though, is the demographic trend in which younger […]

( Kitco News ) – Gold premiums are on the rise in India as jewellers prepare for the festive season. Although the COVID-19 pandemic has taken its toll on the nation some say that the festivities could be a welcome distraction to what has been a very tough year in India.
The country celebrates Dussehra on Sunday and Diwali and Dhanteras in November when buying gold is considered auspicious and gifts are given.
At an exchange rate of 74.00 USD/INR and GBP/INR 96.67. local gold futures traded at around 50,920 rupees per 10 grams. Prices hit an all-time high of 56,191 rupees in August. There has been about a $5 per ounce premium in the nation. Reuters also reported, […]
There is nothing new to report, gold and silver headed lower
While traders look for reasons to buy gold and silver , there is no reason to step in here. The precious metals remain in downtrends, with a higher probability of breaking to the downside until proven otherwise.
What I find interesting is marketing campaigns continue to tell us how high the metals are going. However, we know for sure that eventually, gold, silver and platinum will reverse and trend higher. Trying to guess when without price action and proof that becomes a fool’s game of hope.
Traders must learn that trading is never based on hope or false promises, but price action and trend. Add to that, when those who sell promises and hope are playing on the emotions of traders. Hope is a losing proposition when it comes to trading; price and trend will guide you.

Lack of physical gold demand in Asia is weighing on the metal: Commerzbank
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) Investor demand is keeping gold from sliding below $1,900 an ounce, but weak physical demand out of Asia is keeping a lid on the precious metal’s gains, according to Commerzbank. "Gold is continuing to lack support from physical gold demand in Asia. Swiss trade data had revealed last week that gold demand in India and China was still rock bottom in September. This is likely to be confirmed by the World Gold Council this week when it publishes the demand trends for the third quarter on Thursday. This will probably prove to be the weakest quarter this year. Gold is still finding support from investment demand, however, which is presumably preventing the price from sliding," writes […]
No major gold price move expected until U.S. election or stimulus agreement: MKS PAMP Group

(Kitco News) Gold is likely to trade around the $1,900 level until the U.S. election or a stimulus agreement, according to MKS PAMP Group. "Gold prices continue to fluctuate as investors weighed the better than expected economic data against the stalled U.S. stimulus talks. The metal continues to be centered around $1,900 for the time being, with a general lack of direction and momentum," MKS writes. Investors should be looking at technicals to figure out gold’s next price move, MKS adds. "Over the past few weeks, we have seen a number of attempts at the $1,920-30 region, however it always ends up falling back off. That said support between $1,875-95 has been robust, the metal happily floating in […]
Gold Price Futures (GC) Technical Analysis – Trading Both Sides of $1902.10 Pivot
Gold futures are posting a choppy, two-sided trade on Monday. The market opened sharply lower but then turned slightly higher for the session as traders reassessed the probability of a stimulus deal getting agreed upon by the November 3 presidential election. Given the strength in the U.S. Dollar Index, it appears that there won’t be a fiscal stimulus deal before voters go to the polls. However, new worries over the economic impact of the pandemic are providing some support.
At 15:18 GMT, December Comex gold futures are trading $1906.00, up $0.80 or +0.04%.
Traders are also monitoring the polls ahead of the election. Although Democratic candidate Joe Biden is predicted to win, the numbers may be contested by President Trump. However, if Biden wins then investors expect to see even more stimulus measures in 2021. This should be bullish for gold.
