Fundamental
Overview
Gold eventually did erase
the losses triggered by the US Retail Sales data and added to the gains
breaking into a new all-time high. The market continues to move upwards by
inertia amid a lack of bearish news for the precious metal.
Real yields remain in a bearish
trend which is supportive for the gold market. We will likely need a strong growth
scare to see some downside in gold or a hawkish Fed to trigger a bigger
correction. For now, the path of least resistance remains to the upside.
