Gold Prices Up Slightly On Data. Gold Stocks to Watch

April 12, 2012 By Leave a Comment

Gold pricesAfter easing the past two days due to the Alcoa generated rally, gold prices are snapping back on a lackluster jobs report. While the labor market is still showing growth, the anemic pace will eventually be thrust to the forefront of concerns that investors have to address. The Italian bond auction also gave gold bulls some respite as 3-year borrowing costs increased.

On the equity markets you get the sense that the European and US markets have decoupled. The EU still lacks a sustainable solution for their debt issues. Noted gold bulls like Max Keiser insists that the US is living on borrowed time. If true, then when does that time run out. If we have a stellar earnings season, the prospects for QE3 become dim unless the jobs picture deteriorate. A lot of ifs out there for gold investors and that’s why you are not seeing a massive move in either direction.

The gold spot price is currently up $15 to 1,674.90 per ounce. [Read more...]
