Chris Weston, head of research at Pepperstone, stated in a report, "In the short term, gold faces a challenging environment." He pointed out that traditional macroeconomic trends affecting gold prices suggest that investors and traders may reduce their gold allocations until relevant factors become more favorable. Weston noted that a stronger dollar is putting slight pressure on gold.
