- Friday, July 6, 2012, 11:53 AM Gold falls 1.3% to $1,588, the entirety of the decline coming in the minutes following the jobs report. In a little more than a day since a gold bull's dream - 3 major central banks loosening monetary policy and weak U.S. data giving at least a bit more impetus towards further Fed ease - the metal is off 2.1%. Silver is down 4.6% during the same time frame. 63 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, June 6, 2012, 11:04 AM Gold is moving nicely higher, +1.3% to $1,639/oz. as the Fed starts to stir, but the big action is in silver, +4.6%, and erasing all of May's losses in June's first few days. SLV +4.1%. Comment! [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, May 16, 2012, 7:55 AM Off 1.3% to $1,535, gold is at its YTD low and looks to be testing a key support level hit in September and again in December. Beneath that looks to be a lot of air. It's more volatile cousin silver, -2.4% to $27.40, is forming a similar chart pattern. 15 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Monday, April 30, 2012, 8:57 AM Gold takes a quick tumble, dropping nearly 1% in minutes to $1.650/oz. (taking silver along for the ride, or vice versa). The fall comes as HSBC hits the tape, cutting its 2012 average gold forecast to $1,760 from $1,850 on a "sharp decline" in Indian demand and reduced expectations for QE. 15 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 26, 2012, 11:00 AM The charts show interesting moves for the precious metals, with gold and silver bottoming out of multi-week bear moves right as the FOMC released its policy statement (more ZIRP) yesterday. Since then, gold is 2% higher to $1,658, silver up 3.5% to $31.01. 4 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, April 12, 2012, 10:14 AM Gold shoots out of a quiet trading range it's been in for the last 48 hours, leaping 1% in the past minutes to $1,670/oz. GLD +0.7%. Silver is on the move too, leaping $0.55 to $32.05/oz. SLV +2%. 6 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 10, 2012, 1:04 PM After hanging around quietly in the red most of the day, gold and silver have charged higher in the last 30 minutes. Gold +0.8% to $1,657/oz., silver +0.6% to $31.71/oz. 2 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, April 4, 2012, 7:34 AM Gold continues to feel the sting of a new-found (but likely temporary) hawkishness coming out of the FOMC. The yellow metal adds to yesterday's big loss, -2.9% to $1,623. It's the lowest price since the opening days of 2012. Silver -4.5% to $31.76. GLD -1.2%, SLV -2.1% premarket. Comment! [Commodities, On the Move]
- Tuesday, April 3, 2012, 2:36 PM Dollar-sensitive commodities aren't spared the damage from news additional QE isn't right around the corner. Gold -1.7% to $1,651, WTI crude -1.3% to $103.84, copper -0.8% to $3.89. 6 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Thursday, March 22, 2012, 10:08 AM Precious metals continue a decline which began around the start of March, touching their lowest levels since January. Gold -1.3% to $1,631/oz., silver -2.5% to $31.41. Of continuing concern is higher import duties for gold in India where jewelers are expected to reopen today after a week-long strike. Comment! [Commodities, On the Move, Global & FX]
- Tuesday, March 20, 2012, 2:37 PM Down big today, silver catches a bit of a bid following the earthquake in Mexico as several mines are in the area. Silver -3.1% to $31.94. Comment! [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, March 14, 2012, 7:22 AM Precious metals continue a decline that picked up steam when the positive results of the Fed stress tests began to leak out. It's hard to imagine QE3 coming about if the Fed believes a depression could hit and banks would still be solid enough to return capital to investors. Gold -2.1% to $1,659. Silver -1.1% to $33.19. 5 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Friday, March 9, 2012, 11:23 AM Precious metals reverse big early losses in the wake of the payroll report and pop sharply higher over the past 60 minutes. Gold +0.7% to $1,710, silver +0.9% to $34.12. Crude oil is on the move as well, +1.3% to $107.97. 2 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
- Friday, March 9, 2012, 9:57 AM The bid comes out of gold and silver following the NFP report, with traders apparently believing continuing solid employment numbers lessens the chances for additional QE. Gold is at 1,681/oz., silver at $33.29. GLD -1%, SLV -1.2%. 1 Comment [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 29, 2012, 3:50 PM The bottom continues to fall out of precious metals prices, gold off nearly $100/oz., or -5.1% to $1,697. Silver is off $2.55/oz., or -7% to $34.61. The slide began right around the time Bernanke's testimony gave no hint of additional easing, but may have been triggered by algorithms kicking in when a large sell order hit the Treasury pits. 1 Comment [Commodities, On the Move]
- Wednesday, February 29, 2012, 11:03 AM Precious metals fall off a cliff as well as it becomes clear no new candy is imminently forthcoming from the Fed. Gold -2.3% to $1,747/oz., Silver -2.5% to $36.22/oz. Oil slides too, -0.6% to $105.94. (also) 3 Comments [Commodities, On the Move]
