Gold Chart of the Week

WEEKLY GOLD REPORT (November 26 through November 30)

After a strong finish last week in most major global markets, we begin this week flat after the festivities.

Following the Thanksgiving Holiday in the United States, traders were lined up to buy anything that they could get their hands on during Friday’s shortened trading day. It seemed that markets were still reacting from news earlier in the week, and probably taking advantage of the light volume opportunity.

Throughout the shortened week, markets like Gold were moving sideways to higher following news in the United States that Democrats and Republicans were enthusiastic about the upcoming “Fiscal Cliff” negotiations. Across the pond, European news suggested that while no final decisions were made regarding Greece yet, a good old fashioned can-kicking would suffice. The Eurogroup/IMF Meeting will continue today to decide on Greek Debt and the next tranche of cash. Prior to the meeting, it was reported that “considerable progress” has been made. Apparently, these delayed decisions were enough for investors like George Soros and John Paulson to report they had added to their already hefty long Gold positions.

All eyes on the Fiscal Cliff today

After moving notably higher last week, stocks may move back to the downside in early trading on Monday. The major index futures are currently pointing to a moderately lower open for the markets, with the Dow futures down by 37 points.

Lingering concerns about the looming fiscal cliff may generate selling pressure as U.S. lawmakers get back to work following the Thanksgiving recess.

While leaders of both parties have called for compromise, the issues of taxes on the wealthy and entitlement reform are likely to remain major sticking points. Continue reading "All eyes on the Fiscal Cliff today"

Slow trading before Thanksgiving, unless ...

Hello traders everywhere! Adam Hewison here, co-founder of MarketClub with your mid-day market update for Wednesday, the 21st of November.

SLOW TRADING, UNLESS ...

It is going to be slow trading today as many traders and investors have taken off for the Thanksgiving holiday. The only fly in the ointment that would spark a major move would be an escalation of conflict in the middle east.

We do however, expect the markets to remain on the quiet side for the balance of the day. With volume down for all asset classes for the year, we see little reason for anyone to jump into the market today and begin trading.

We will not have a broadcast on Friday the 23rd. Our next broadcast will be on Monday the 26th. To all of our American members and friends, we wish you a happy Thanksgiving!

FOR THOSE OF YOU WHO WILL BE CHECKING PRICES ON THE 22nd Continue reading "Slow trading before Thanksgiving, unless ..."
