Gold prices consolidate after yesterday’s sell-off, base metals quiet

METALS MORNING VIEW  – LITE EDITION

 The sell-off in precious metals stole the light yesterday – the metals had looked vulnerable to stale long liquidation and it finally unfolded yesterday.

Key will be whether this sell-off prompts bargain hunting and unleashes pent-up physical demand – in which case the sell-off could end up being a downward spike with prices rebounding soon. The base metals consolidated in lower ground with the stronger dollar acting as a headwind.
