Initial Target Price / Range: $1,845
Initial Timeframe: 11 February 2022 to 18 February 2022
All markets responded strongly to concerns over Russia potentially invading Ukraine as early as this weekend. Gold shot up sharply, touching an intraday high of $1,867.40. Prices could see some pull back next week following the sharp run up today regardless of whether or not such an invasion occurs.
Prices could find initial support at $1,850 and stronger support at $1,845. Even if Russia does not take any action this weekend, until there is a clearer resolution on the issue there is likely to be a premium for this concern factored into gold prices. Additionally, the strong U.S. inflation figures released on 10 February should provide further downside support to gold prices.
