Gold hit a record over night, reaching 3508 fo the first time ever, we are now trading 3490 and Sulver is 40.70. Ole comments : Gold reached a fresh record overnight above USD 3500; the technical trigger being renewed momentum buying after months of sideways trading. The move was reinforced by silver’s surge above USD 40 to a 14-year high.
