Gold prices have fallen below CPM Group’s last sell trade recommendation of $1,760. This was part of a broad-based sharp decline Monday morning across currencies, equities, bonds, and commodities ranging from oil to agriculturals to platinum and palladium as well as gold and silver. This broad-based asset sell off reflected financial markets’ ongoing effort to understand that the Fed and other monetary authorities are likely to maintain a firm interest rate policy for at least the next several months as they combat a jump in inflation that reflects both cyclical and longer term price pressures.
While prices have fallen sharply over the past week, there could be some further downside pressure on prices in the near term. prices are expected to move sideways to lower ahead of the Kansas City Fed’s Jackson Hole Summit later this week.
CPM maintains a sell recommendation with an initial downside target of $1,740. If gold prices are able to settle below this level a brief drop to $1,720 cannot be ruled out. If prices settle above $1,755, investors are recommended to close out the short position initiated on August 18, with a target price of $1,760.
CPM has one-month, three-month ranges and eight-quarter quarterly price projections with greater discussion of the factors behind CPM’s analyses provided in CPM’s monthly subscription service, the Precious Metals Advisory.
