Gold Daily Analysis – September 14, 2017
Gold prices dipped lower on Wednesday for the third consecutive day as the dollar moved higher after strong CPI data and the Congress decision to start working on tax reform package.
Saxo Bank’s head of commodity research Ole Hansen said: “Geopolitical trouble hasn’t disappeared and the U.S. political landscape is still fraught with difficulties”. Ole added: “When gold drops almost $40, a lot of investors see that as a good level at which to buy back in.”
