Surprise, surprise. Shares in miners of precious metals are topping the UK Index this morning as investors return to what the markets regard as safe ports in a storm. Well they aren’t looking for a hedge for rampant inflation are they? That missing piece of the puzzle is being kept well in check by a depressed oil price and stubborn producers the world over. This morning’s ‘precious little’ gains come after a 2-day equity rally came to a head on poor US manufacturing data and the price of Gold broke beyond the $1100 level which could allow it push on towards 3yr falling highs around $1140. Oh and Asian had a shocker overnight with China probably wishing it hadn’t got rid of those circuit breakers. And further support for Gold comes from a slightly weaker USD as markets price in expectations of a dovish Fed message tomorrow given the market turmoil since it delivered its landmark hike in Dec and likelihood it tones down its rhetoric on multiple rate rises this year.
