RE: Gold ETF down 30%, but gold miners in good shape ...good value14 Dec 2021 07:10
The bizarre and worrying thing for gold was how fast it lost it's ~USD100 gain. On top of this, the FED communicated that transitory is not the case now, which should have boosted gold. To me, it's a combination of the QE and COVID causing supply chain issues that caused this inflation, the second one means around for longer. Equally, the labour market is strong regards employment numbers, considering COVID.
Will be interesting to see how this plays out over coming months.
Inflation, has, of course, hit miners cost base- Vitaly at POLY mentioned this twice this year, in Jan and Aug and both times their SP took a whack.
The gold price rose a lot last summer, and the question is always- "what is the correct price for gold?", PMs move on intra-day gold prices mainly and sentiment of gold price along with the obvious RNS'.
The FED meet this week- so normally means some gold movment.
