Today gold is virtually flat, as it is extending a consolidation. What about the other precious metals? Silver is 0.2% lower, platinum is 1.0% lower and palladium is 1.0% lower. So precious metals’ prices are lower this morning.

Yesterday’s New Home Sales release has been worse than expected at 676,000. Today we will get the CB Consumer Confidence and Durable Goods Orders releases.

The markets will be waiting for tomorrow’s FOMC Statement announcement.

Where would the price of gold go following Wednesday’s FOMC news? We’ve compiled the data since January of 2017, a 53-month-long period of time that contains of thirty six FOMC releases. The first chart shows price paths 5 days before and 10 days after the FOMC release. The latest FOMC Statement release came out on June 16. Gold price was 4.8% lower 10 days after the release.

The following chart shows average gold price path before and after the FOMC releases for the past 36 releases. The market was usually declining ahead of the FOMC day. Then it was going up for a week-long period. We can see that on average, gold price was 0.49% higher 10 days after the FOMC Statement announcement.
