Can Gold Futures Hold Support?
Technical Momentum Weakens
Gold Futures hit an all-time high on May 20th, 2024, at $2,454; since then, they have corrected and consolidated. From a long-term perspective, futures give us a mixed signal, recently dropping below the 50-DMA at $2,373 but remaining well above the 200-DMA at $2,153. The technical perspective shows momentum studies decreasing, with stochastics correcting back into oversold territory and DMI—just above DMI+. Short-term traders continue to monitor the 9-day moving average, trading below the 18-day moving average. At the same time, the Average True Range sits at 37/day.
Tailwinds Continue to Develop
With an 8% chance of a July rate cut, according to the CME FedWatch Tool, traders are focused on September; swaps are pricing in a 54% chance that the Fed will make its first interest rate hike in the cycle.
Geopolitical tensions, rampant fiscal spending, and central bank buying have been the main drivers and have significantly propelled Gold prices in 2024.
Industrial Metals Strengthen
The performance in the Precious Metals space remains robust and has continued to spill into the industrial complex, a testament to the strength of this sector. Traders continue to monitor manufacturing, Chinese Economic data, and the U.S. economy, which have recently driven copper futures back over 4.50/pound and Silver over 29.50/oz.
