- Fed Plosser -- Harsh winter weather leaves him skeptical of current economic data, has not changed economic outlook for 2014 -- reiterates concern that Federal reserve will resist raising interest rates for too long and be forced to chase financial markets
- Technically gold, silver, copper and crude oil are all bullish. The next three days are very crucial for gold and silver
Yellen's testimony and our view
Federal Reserve chairman Janet Yellen pledged to maintain her predecessor’s policies by scaling back stimulus in “measured steps,” saying in remarks to the House Financial Services Committee that economic growth has picked up and the labor market has seen “broad improvement.” Our view: US labor markets will improve as the weather turns hot. I do not foresee any significant increases in jobs growth in February. However I see US employment to start rising from March and April. US factories and the services sector will employ more before the Easter vacations in April. I expect a big rise in Easter sales in the USA and the Eurozone. We expect further monetary policy withdrawal from April onwards.
Gold now needs to break $1330 by 20th March to be in another bull run. In case gold does not break $1330 by 20th March then it will fall to $1210 and $1170.
Today gold needs to trade over $1272 to target $1296-$1312. A daily close over $1272 today will be bullish for gold in the short term. Silver will rise if and only if copper prices rise. Chinese factories will operate in full capacity from 15th February. Next week’s Chinese copper and silver demand will be the key.
There is not a US economic data release today. It will be a technical trade.
