Gold is down a net ~USD 30 at time of writing, narrowly on track to resume its broader downtrend despite a mid-week post-FOMC rebound. Singapore dealers continued to observe “quiet” market conditions this week, prompting some to narrow their spread, Hong Kong dealers reported similar observations, noting that a mid-week rebound in gold prices further weighed on physical demand.
