On Friday, the yellow metal declined, taking a breather having capitalized on the key US bank and worrying the stock markets earlier in the week. However, a second week of profits in three as well as the potential of more economic downtimes ahead is actually inspiring gold enthusiasts to target the $1,300 value last observed in June.
As some financial analysts pointed out, traders have managed to accumulate some extra-long positions, while the holders of short positions have begun shifting to the exits because the financial market picks up some steam.

Following the rate lift fed funds futures disclosed that investors were adding to bets that the Federal Reserve won’t hold on further hikes from January. What’s more, a lot of economists also consider the likelihood of a global recession. All of this can greatly weaken the evergreen buck, simultaneously backing the yellow metal.
Meanwhile, silver tumbled by 1.2% ending up with $14.69 per ounce.
