Gold: Next on the upside comes $1953
Gold prices rose to multi-day highs past $1920 and reclaimed the key area above the 200-day SMA on Friday. The move was amidst a small uptick in open interest, which suggests that extra gains could be on the cards in the very near term. The next upside target emerges at the so far September high at $1953 per troy ounce (September 1).
