Good MorningThe trading-week ended on a sour note Friday with the markets down from the week’s open and the previous week’s close. Price action was impacted by rising tensions between the U.S. and China after China ordered the U.S. to close one of its embassies. The move is due to a similar action from the U.S. earlier in the week, a series of events that threatens to send the two nations deeper into the Cold War.
Action in other markets was equally noteworthy. The Dollar Index continued its decline to fall toa new low. With the dollar trading below $94.75, the stage is set for a much deeper decline. In response to the dollar’s decline, gold prices are rising. The price of spot gold rose more than 0.5% on Friday to extend a strong week of gains and bring the metals up to just shy of its all-time high. Oil prices drifted higher for the week but traders are warned a rounding top is in play and lower prices are in the forecast.
