Gold And The Three Bears
(Kitco News)- We have all heard the story ofGoldilocks and the Three Bears. Certainly gold has been in a bear market. As wesearch for a reason to buy, gold appears to have some more room to thedownside. However, this doesn't mean we can't find a reason to buy for a tradeand capitalize on a short-term pop.
For weeks, every rally has failedand been a selling opportunity. We don't see that changing anytime soon withgold being in a downtrend. From a trader's standpoint, this week could prove tobe an opportunity to see a small rally. This week is the Fed meeting, whichcould propel prices higher on a reaction to the Fed statement. The jobs numberis this week, which could also provide a bounce, but we would consider theserallies if they come too hot and be sellers.
We consider the $1,180 to be justright for now and although we are looking for a dead-cat bounce as traders, asinvestors, we will continue to observe. For us to want to invest, gold mustbreak this downtrend and we would rather buy at higher prices with confirmationthan bottom fish and get run over. Patience is the name of the investing game.It's always better to wish you were in a trade than you weren't.
