Daily Gold News: Tuesday, July 21 – Precious Metals Going Higher Again

The gold futures contract gained 0.41% on Monday, as it extended its last Friday’s advance of 0.5%. The market has retraced most of its relatively flat correction from new long-term high of around $1,830. The financial markets have been going risk-on following series of better-than-expected economic data and quarterly corporate earnings releases. Last month gold broke above medium-term local highs in June, as we can see on the daily chart:

Gold is 0.5% higher this morning, as it is extending the uptrend. What about the other precious metals? Silver gained 2.17% on Monday and today it is gaining another 3.3%. Platinum gained 0.98% and today it is 1.9% higher. Palladium gained 1.82% and today it is gaining 3.8%. So precious metals are extending their uptrend this morning.

Last week’s Friday’s economic data releases have been mixed. Yesterday we didn’t get any important economic data. However, the markets are reacting on the U.S. quarterly corporate earnings releases this week.
