Gold nears the downtrend from the record high, breaks $1900

Gold can’t be pinned down

There are two lines of thinking on the easy-money trade (low rates & high government spending):

Bet on it now because Democrats are way ahead in the polls
Wait and see what the election brings

I lean to option #2 but maybe I’m being overly cautious. In the past two days, the market has piled into option #1.

We’re seeing it again today with gold climbing alongside the commodity currencies, along with a small slump in the US dollar overall. The yen crosses are particularly compelling from a technical perspective but gold is also notable, because it’s rangebound but nearing some technical resistance.
