Precious metals are expected to trade in a mixed direction today. The zig-zag nature of the commodities markets and the dollar index in recent days indicates that they have reached some kind of short-term equilibrium that's made worse by the light summer volumes. It's difficult to discover a trend in that environment, so we expect gold prices to maintain the recent $913-$949 trading range. Focus today will be on car sales and potential indications of investment allocation at today's start of Q3. The seasonal trend at the start of a new quarter is generally negative after today's close, as we discuss below. We favor trading precious metals as a trading affair.
