US Dollar Gold Trend Analysis / Commodities / Gold & Silver 2019

By Nadeem_Walayat / June 15, 2019 / www.marketoracle.co.uk / Article Link

Commodities

The following chart illustrates that there is a strong inverse relationship between the US Dollar and Gold. When the Dollar rises, the gold price tends to fall and visa versa, it should not be surprising given that the Gold is priced in dollars. The only recent deviation from the correlation was October to December which coincided with stock market weakness i.e. SAFEHAVEN buying of the Dollar AND Gold. So the safe haven buying that gold bugs obsess over tends to be temporary at times of stock market stress.


The recent trend in the gold price has been shallower than the expected given that the USD has continued to march higher which implies relative strength, i.e. the gold price appears to want to go higher despite the rising dollar.

A quick technical take suggests that the US Dollar may be running out of steam as it approaches resistance at $100, from where a correction could see a retracement to $95, a trend towards which would likely be the trigger for the Gold price to assault resistance at $1350.
