President Trump announcedintentions to pull out of the Iran deal Tuesday, which caused some volatilityin all markets. Equities whipped around only to close near the unchanged line.Oil got clobbered but cut most of the losses and is back on four-year highs,and gold failed at $1,318.
It's obvious that gold has someissues to deal with and is headed lower. Throughout much of the recentuncertainty when gold should have been rallying, it has not. Gold has beenconsolidating the last week and once again failed at yet another attempt tobreak the recent downturn
One thing we know about allmarkets -- when they should be going up and they are not, that is an indicationthat there is more selling to come. Gold is in that category now. It shouldhave been rallying but continues to show weakness, indicating that $1,280 isjust around the corner.
Keep those stops tight.
