$1300 remains a key test of investor sentiment on Gold
The latest sentix survey points to a pick-up in sentiment towards commodities as an asset class over the past month, with readings reaching their highest level since Q1. However, at a market level, investors have become less optimistic on the near-term outlook for Gold, with headline survey readings dropping back from the previous week’s highly elevated sentiment levels. The good news for Gold is that near-term concerns have not de-railed the recent improvement in survey participants’ mediumterm strategic bias on the metal. The bad news is that $1300 remains a notable test of investors’ sentiment towards Gold. See Charts 2-4, p2.
