The price of gold retreated today on the Feds announcement that they were most likely done cutting rates. This announcement came while oil continues to rise and the market remains shaky.

Gold, which is one of those safe havens for dollars, especially when the dollar is weak as it is now, may suffer at the hands no more rate cuts. However, this might only be temporary. Oil is continuing to rise sparking talk of a recession and everyone is feeling the pain of inflation and rising food prices. So why won’t gold follow suit.

Although this is a blog on gold, you have to look at as a commodity slice of the whole market. Prices are going up on all commodities because there is a rising demand for all commodities while there isn’t as much a supply. This means higher prices.

The FED may be trying to curb inflation but will they kill golds rise? I’m guessing not. Gold may be at great price to buy right now.
