Gold's selloff this past week is a continuation of the trend that started in early March as markets react to the Federal Reserve's aggressive monetary policy action to cool down inflation, which remains stubbornly high. In this environment, many analysts have said a lot of technical damage has been inflicted on gold prices and it will be difficult for the precious metal to find any bullish momentum in the near term.
On the retail side, 1,045 respondents took part in online polls. A total of 395 voters, or 38%, called for gold to rise. Another 489, or 47%, predicted gold would fall. The remaining 161 voters, or 15%, called for a sideways market.Main Street Bullish Bearish Neutral The bearish sentiment comes as the gold price fell to a more than two-year low at $1,661.90 an ounce. The precious metal last traded at $1,684.30 an ounce, down roughly 2.5% from last Friday.
Marc Chandler, managing director at Bannockburn Global Forex, said his next gold price target is $1,615 to $1,650 and wouldn't rule out prices falling to $1,500 by next year. However, not everyone is bearish on gold. Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said that gold's ability to end the week above $1,680 could signal a strong move building in the marketplace.
