Gold is Testing “Floor” Theory

James Turk 4 February, 2010

February 4, 2010 – There is a popular point of view that the Reserve Bank of India put a ‘floor’ under the gold market around $1050, which approximates the price at which it bought 200 tonnes of gold from the IMF.  The thinking is that other central banks, and perhaps the Reserve Bank of India itself, will purchase gold at that price.  This theory that $1,050 represents a ‘floor’ is now being put to the test. 

Regardless whether this theory proves accurate or not, it is clear from the following chart that gold remains firmly within a major uptrend.  Gold also remains above its all-important 200-day moving average.

This long-term price chart of gold is providing us with an important message.  The panic selling seen today has hardly put a dent in the bullish picture presented by this chart.

For my specific trading recommendations, see Trading.

FGMR My objective is to share with you my views on gold, which in recent decades has become one of the world’s most misunderstood asset classes. This low level of knowledge about gold creates a wonderful opportunity and competitive edge to everyone who truly understands gold and money.
