DJ MARKET TALK: Gold Likely To Test $940; Profit-Taking Continues
0346 GMT [Dow Jones] Spot gold at $951.75/oz, down 35 cents since NY close, after overnight profit-taking took gold sharply down from yesterday's intraday high of $978.45. "It's very volatile. I suspect there is more profit-taking to come and we will test $940 and even $930 in the short term," says Peter Tse, head of precious metals trading at ScotiaMocatta in Hong Kong. Says nothing had changed in terms of fundamentals, this likely to be corrective phase in gold's uptrend rather than long term trend reversal. Adds hard to identify which cues to follow as gold not trading in any particular pattern with stock or forex markets this week. "Funds are moving from one market to another. It's fund flows rather than fundamentals that are deciding direction at the moment." (JAC)
