- Gold and silver prices are holding modest gains in quieter midday U.S. trading Tuesday, as the U.S. Federal Reserve has begun its two-day policy-setting meeting. August gold was last up $3.50 at $1,965.90 and September silver was up $0.274 at $24.855.
Asian and European stock markets were mixed in quieter overnight trading. U.S. stock indexes are modestly up at midday. The U.S. stock index bulls are enjoying a low-volatility summertime rally, which suggests the price uptrends in the stock indexes can continue in the next few weeks. That’s an underlying bearish element for the precious metals, as it’s likely pulling some buying interest away from the safe-haven metals.
Technically, August gold futures bulls have the slight overall near-term technical advantage but need to show fresh power soon to keep it. Prices are in a three-week-old uptrend on the daily bar chart, but just barely. Bulls’ next upside price objective is to produce a close above solid resistance at $2,000.00. Bears' next near-term downside price objective is pushing futures prices below solid technical support at the June low of $1,900.60.
