Weekly Gold Focus – Gold futures will continue to keep an eye on President Trump’s policy changes, the FOMC meeting and the intensity of the liquidation in equity markets.

Important Global Events for the Week

On Friday February 3rd we will get the Nonfarm payrolls report where the Dec. previous number was 156,000 and Jan expected is 170,000.

Of the more interesting developments that I have been watching in the gold this week has been the concept of “open interest”. Open interest is defined as the total number of futures or options contracts of a given commodity that have not yet been offset by an opposite futures or options transaction nor fulfilled by delivery of the commodity or option exercise. Each open transaction has a buyer and a seller, but for calculation of open interest, only one side of the contract is counted. I will get into why I was analyzing Open Interest below.
