Gold continues to rise but insufficient kinetic energy

Spot gold fell on Tuesday, refreshing a one-week low to 1692.59 US dollars, because the US and European countries have successively lifted the embargo and restarted the economy, some investors chose to take profits and partly pressured the price of gold. However, due to the improvement of market liquidity and the cooling of risk aversion, the fall of the US dollar limited the decline of gold. Analysts believe that the Fed’s massive easing has put pressure on the dollar. Overall, the recent trend of gold has been volatile, as investors are still choosing their direction, and are concerned about the Fed resolution and US first-quarter GDP data.
