Hedge Funds Bullish on Gold; Gold Price still Down

On Monday, November 21st when gold price sharply declined Bloomberg reported that Hedge Funds cut their bullish bets on many commodities due to the debt concerns in Europe, but the article also showed that Hedge funds also increased their net long position in gold. This trend in gold hoarding was confirmed again today with Bloomberg’s report that gold traders continue to be bullish on the precious metal. The only problem is that this gold hoarding isn’t represented in the current gold price. During the past couple of weeks from November 11th until November 25th – gold price declined by 5%; silver price also sharply declined by 7.8%. The chart above shows the recent downward fall of both precious metals prices’. This could mean that despite the growing bullish bets of Hedge Funds in gold, their purchase power doesn’t keep up with the many traders who trade down gold. On the other hand, if this gold hoarding will continue, it’s likely to eventually change the recent downward direction of gold and silver prices and help them rally. Forex Trading / Gold
