Gold fell 3%, Silver .9%

ByVictoria

Safe-haven gold fell 3% on Monday as risk sentiment crept in following the announcement of a temporary deal between the United States and China to reduce tariffs.

Spot gold was down 3% at $3,225.28 an ounce, as of 1344 ET (17:44 GMT). Bullion, considered a hedge against economic and geopolitical turmoil, hit a record high of $3,500.05 last month amid increased tariff uncertainty.

“June gold futures bulls have lost their overall near-term technical advantage. Bulls’ next upside price objective is to produce a close above solid resistance at $3,350. First resistance is seen at $3,250 and then at $3,275,” said Jim Wyckoff, senior analyst at Kitco Metals.

Spot silver slid 0.9% to $32.4 an ounce, platinum fell 1.9% to $976.06 and palladium dipped 3.4% to $942.69.

    “This approval elevates the Stibnite Gold Project to an elite class of projects in America that have cleared NEPA,” Jon Cherry, Pepetua’s president and CEO, said in a statement.

    “The tribe’s treaties with the United States are the supreme law of the land and remain binding,”

    Prices of platinum, a white precious metal, have rallied over 30% this year to date, with spot prices currently around $1,200 per ounce. Spot gold prices are around 27% higher over the same period.

    “Rising gold prices are incentivising jewellers to diversify, in what represents a change to historical patterns.”

    The BofA analysts wrote that even a 1% switch in gold to platinum jewelry could help double the white metal’s supply deficit to 1.6 million ounces.
