Gold hasn’t moved much, down .01%

ByVictoria

Spot gold was down 0.1% at $2,913.79 an ounce as of 10:04 a.m. EST (1504 GMT). U.S. gold futures rose 0.1% to $2,923.70.

“There’s still buying interest out there now … there’s going to be some measure of caution ahead of Friday’s (payrolls data), but the underlying trend remains favorable,” said Peter Grant, vice president and senior metals strategist at Zaner Metals. 

“If the number comes out really bad, I would imagine gold sells off. If it comes out neutral, I don’t think that’s going to move the needle too much. But if it comes out bullish, then gold takes off and we get pretty quick to $3,000, if not higher than that,” said Daniel Pavilonis, senior market strategist at RJO Futures.

Spot silver advanced 1.2% to $32.36 an ounce and palladium fell 0.4% to $938.22. Platinum gained 0.5% to $965.45.

    “People are well advised to know and expect that [silver] is going to be volatile,” Krauth said. “It’s going to be more volatile than gold, and if you talk about silver stocks, that’s another—you know, it’s exponentially more volatile.”

    “Maybe it’s not a bad idea to wait a little bit to let things calm down.”

    “Silver is showing signs of relatively higher momentum with the price trying to breach the crucial US$ 33 level,” Emkay said

    Given silver’s diverse industrial applications, its price is projected to rise from its current level, reaching $36.60, $38.70, and $39.30 on COMEX, it said.

    “Investing in silver funds with a 12 to 18 months’ time horizon is likely to be a worthy proposition.”

    The gold-silver ratio is currently around 90, which suggests that silver is currently undervalued.
