Fed unlimited
Quantitative Easing announcement. Yellow metal has retraced all of the previous sell-off, as it got back close to March 9 medium-term high of $1,704.30. Since then, gold trades within the mentioned short-term consolidation.
Gold is down 0.3% this morning, as it continues to fluctuate following last week’s rally. What about the other precious metals?

Platinum gained 0.61% on Friday and today it is 2.2% lower.
