Gold Slides To New Lows For The Year

by Peter A. Grant

Apr 03, AM
(from USAGOLD.com) --

Gold remains defensive as the market already seems to be putting the Cyprus debacle behind it. There is a general sense that the eurozone has dodged another bullet, and so risk appetite is back on the rise.

With U.S. stocks in particular setting record highs, equities have been attracting capital at the expense of safe-havens and commodities. Credit Suisse today lowered their price targets for most commodities on expectations of both weaker demand and higher supplies. Just about every commodity fund has a gold component, so the shift from commodities to stocks is also contributing to pressure on the yellow metal.

The white metals have been under heavier pressure. Platinum fell back below the price of gold in February, an historically unusual event. Silver dropped to an eight-month low below $27 today. The gold/silver ratio has tested above 58 for the first time since August of last year, indicative of silver's relative weakness.

Interestingly, stocks are rallying largely on expectations of diminished growth risks and glimmers of a true recovery in some of the data. However, more robust growth and employment would tend to result in heightened demand for commodities. There seems to be a bit of a disconnect, which may be as good a reason as any to not shed your safe-havens.
