The Metals:

 

Gold dove down to $1266.10 at the open of trade last night before it bounced back above $1275 in Asia and then fell back to $1267.50 at about 8:15AM EST, but it then chopped its way back higher into the close and ended with a loss of just 0.68%.  Silver slipped to as low as $17.734 and ended with a loss of just 0.22%.

 

Euro gold fell to about €1174, platinum lost $12 to $959, and copper climbed a couple of cents to about $2.57.

 

Gold and silver equities fell roughly 2% at the open and remained near that level for the rest of the day.

Oil continued almost 1% lower on the outlook for rising US production.

 

The U.S. dollar index dropped as the euro jumped higher after France’s election results reduced the chances of them leaving the EU.

 

Treasuries fell as the Dow, Nasdaq, and S&P gained over 1% “after France’s election left a centrist on track for the presidency, easing concerns that the country will leave the euro currency bloc.”

 

Among the big names making news in the market today were De Beers, Halliburton, GM, and Hasbro.
