Daily Gold News: Monday, Sep. 13 – Gold Price Still Below $1,800

The gold futures contract lost 0.44% on Friday as it extended its fluctuations following last week’s Tuesday’s decline of almost 2%. The yellow metal has retraced all of its recent advance and it fell back below $1,800 price level. It reacted to the strengthening U.S. dollar, among other factors. This morning gold is trading below the price level of $1,800, as we can see on the daily chart (the chart includes today’s intraday data):

Today gold is 0.1% higher, as it is trading within a short-term consolidation following the mentioned decline from the recent local highs. What about the other precious metals? Silver is 0.4% lower, platinum is 0.6% lower and palladium is 0.4% higher. So precious metals’ prices are mixed this morning.

Friday’s important Producer Price Index release has been slightly higher than expected at +0.7% m/m. The Wholesale Inventories release has been as expected at +0.6%. Today we won’t get any new important economic data releases. Investors will be waiting for tomorrow’s Consumer Price Index release.
