On an official holiday in the United States, the dollar loses and records gold gains
Gold is negotiating gains, after last week’s drop of more than 5% as many monetary authorities increase loan costs to bring down inflation.
However, the fluctuation of other markets still supports safe assets par excellence. The yellow metal increased by 0.03 % to 1,839.97 dollars an ounce, and redemium increased 1.72 % and platinum increased by 0.72 %.
“It’s a public holiday in the US today, which means liquidity – as well as volatility – should be lower, making moves in gold difficult without a new catalyst,” Matt Simpson, an analyst at City Index, told CNBC.
The dollar helps, as it fell 0.22% against the euro, which despite Macron losing an absolute majority, continues to make gains.
Regarding the Japanese yen, both the dollar (0.47%) and the euro (0.23%) recorded losses. This at a time when The Japanese Central Bank has left the short -term interest rates at -0.1 % and the return of sovereign bonds for a period of 10 years near zero.
