Gold - XAUUSD profit-taking ensues to cover losses elsewhere
Recently, gold nearly touched the 2000 USD price tag. However, it failed to move substantially higher because profit-taking quickly ensued as the general stock market started to fall. Nevertheless, we continue to be bullish on gold in the medium-term and long-term. But we are growing increasingly nervous due to the intense persistence of selling pressure in major market indices. If this weakness lasts further, gold might see further sideways price action or selling pressure in the short term. At the moment, we will pay close attention to the immediate support/resistance level.
