Not sure if you guys noticed, somethings a little odd though...
Normally Gold strengthens on the back of a weakening US dollar. Just look at the USD weakening while the POG rose in the last couple of months (see below charts). But in this occasion, they are moving up together !

No squeeze!
Todays session high is also the opening price, meaning not a single offer in the global OTC book was lifted.
In a sense, I am happy about this.
That is a positive looking chart for Gold in $AUD.It's been interesting journey since that "wow" daily outside bar, resolving in last night's crazy move where gold was up and the AUD got smoked and it all seemed to happen so fast during the London session before NY opened. COMEX didn't bring any willing sellers at all.
I think we could test the 2766 monthly closing swing high from Jul/Aug 2020 and it'll be interesting to see what happens when we get there.
Let's see what happens I guess. Before last nights action, it still seemed like the wall of supply between ~2600-~2700 that capped the price for all of 2022 was intact. Anyone who has gold to sell in AUD would be laughing at these prices, an absence of supply here sends its own message.

wow u been holding gold as long as I have been alive, I guess being a very LT holder there is no price range that you would sell it all at? I guess its like money in the bank dig out a withdrawal when you need one.That is a positive looking chart for Gold in $AUD.
However I would still exercise some caution for those new to accumulating Gold ( I've been since the early 1980's and in differing currencies depending on where they have washed me up ) and am well ahead.
I prefer to look at the Gold chart in $USD, and it looks as if it will eventually convincingly break $USD 1850 and upwards to 2000 or even 3000 this year.
Small events can change the supply of Gold though. An example is @peter2 's pick of GCM over the last 2 months. It is a graphene/graphite outfit and I like graphene but the buggers are drilling perilously close to some of my stashed Gold on the Barkly. I may have to wake Švejk up and get him to drive me in the Arnage through some floodwaters over that way and dig some bar up. The last thing I want is some half wit assayer to assay some of my bar and cause both @peter2 and my stake in GCM to rocket at my expense.
Also I am not too sure how long ole Joe Biden has got left on the coil and the crooner Kamahl will spook every market known to god and man when he/she gets in. ( How did an Aussie crooner become VPOTUS ?? ). I don't like to be ageist but really, if Ole Joe came looking for a job at the Hotel he'd be lucky to get a job as a yardman and even then we'd have to insert a GPS in to him in case he wandered off.
Finally remember that supply and demand for Gold is largely hidden. In Croesus' day he cornered the market. However the cousins in Russia, Saudi, China and US Hedge Funds and Fed these days could change the balance instantly.
Nonetheless I remain optimistic.
