Gold is a safe haven during a world crisis. This is the biggest world event we have ever gone through. We have the world shut down. This includes supply chains and we don’t know for how long this is going to last either. At least a year for a vaccine and months for a treatment.
If you go shop for the price of gold online, you will not be able to find it at the market price. The same is true for silver. Do I have your attention yet?

Barrick Gold Corp (GOLD) has been holding its 50-day moving average at $18.99. I’ll be watching for this to hold as support and looking for a push to February highs of $23.00. The company came out with news on April 3 saying that they are still sticking to the 10-year production plan on bringing around 5 million ounces of gold per annum over the next decade.
Gold Fields Limited (GFI) has been holding its trade line on the daily chart at $5.10. I’ll be looking for this to become support on any pullback and will watch for a push to test its 50 and 200-day moving averages. These currently sit at $5.72 and $6.00. After this, we could be looking at February highs up near $8. GFI last released its Annual Report on February 12th. Among other things, it showed that gold produced during the quarter totaled 590,000 ounces. This is compared with 509,000 ounces a year ago.
Eldorado Gold (EGO) has been holding its trade line on the daily chart like the others and has its 50- and 200-day moving averages in the way. These sit at $7.45 and $7.71. Like the GFI chart, if it can get up and over these areas, it could be looking at February highs at $11.00. Now, on March 30th, Eldorado announced a partial drawdown of its credit facility.
The company reported it drew 150 million under its revolving credit facility due to the coronavirus. George Burns, President, and CEO said, “Although we have no immediate need for the funds, drawing on our credit facility is financially prudent at this time. We would like to acknowledge our lenders and all external stakeholders for continuing to support us, our workforce and the local communities relevant to our business.”

With so much uncertainty going on in the world, I expect gold to step up and start moving. Remember, the precious metal has already broken above $1,700 1 time this year. Further unease continues to grow about the coronavirus and we are still a ways away from any vaccine. As investors, we have look at all possible scenarios.
