Gold Still Close to the “Buy Zone”

Gold in NZ Dollars did as we suspected it might this past week. It bounced nicely off the 200 day moving average (MA) line. Just as it has done on multiple occasions this year.

But with the price sitting near the 50 day MA, we are still in a pretty decent buy zone here too.

Silver Still Stuck in the Wedge

Silver just continues to do what it has done for months. That is move up to once again test the downtrend line. Silver (whether priced in US or NZ Dollars) remains within the long standing wedge formation.

But man is it getting compressed now. As we discuss in one of this weeks articles gold and silver volatility are the lowest they have been since the 90’s and early 2000’s respectively.

NZ Dollar Stops at the 50 Day MA

As we thought last week, the NZ dollar hasn’t managed to get above the moving average lines. 0.71 is likely to be a tough area of resistance for it to break above.

There is a common thread running through this weeks articles. That is, while you can’t guarantee how your investments may work out, or whether your bank remains solvent, you can still prepare for the unexpected.

The old adage of plan for the worst but hope for the best.

Volatility at record lows means the trading ranges for gold and silver are getting tighter and tighter. This won’t continue forever, but it does mean you get the chance to buy at what are likely to be low levels in the long term.
