Gold price reaches record
The gold price decided to hold steady after dropping slightly yesterday, this morning it sits back above $1,730 but is facing resistance at $1,739.
Yesterday it remained at a six and a half monthly high and briefly touched a new record, last seen in September 2011, reaching EUR 1,360.23.
Analysts do not expect gold to move by much in the run up to the FOMC meeting and Bernanke’s speech on Thursday as well as the German Court ruling tomorrow. It seems the market has already priced in QE, although the debate as to whether this will happen continues to rage.
Gold dropped slightly yesterday as it appeared investors were ruling out another round of quantitative easing (QE), however the Fed then released US Consumer Credit data which showed a fall in consumer credit, in July, by nearly $3.3bn. This was mainly thanks to Americans paying off their credit cards. This prompted further speculation that QE3 will go ahead as some see this contraction as a forewarning of a further economic slowdown.
And there is the measure of our economy today – markets worry when people are paying off their debts and refusing to spend on credit cards.
