Gold has popped back above the highly psychological $1100/oz level, which could turn out to be a hard fought battle since the area does carry some extra psychological weight. Gold is finding its strength in Dollar weakness as we witness pops and consolidation in the EUR/USD and AUD/USD. However, weakness in the Cable and strength in the USD/JPY is likely tempering gains in gold along with the gravitation force of $1100/oz. Meanwhile, activity should remain at a subdued level since we’re in another holiday-shortened week. The U.S. will release some key economic data this week, beginning with today’s CB Consumer Confidence and S&P HPI figures. More mixed U.S. data could yield additional Dollar weakness as investors lock-in recent Greenback gains, a positive catalyst for gold due to their negative correlation. That being said, markets could move a bit should upcoming data surprise in either direction.
Technically speaking, gold has multiple uptrend lines serving as technical cushions along with 12/18 and 12/23 lows. As for the topside, gold faces technical barriers in the form of 12/21,12/15, and 12/7 highs along with the psychological $1150/oz level.
