Precious Metals Rally Up to Trump Inauguration… Now What?

Gold and silver are off to a good start in 2017, advancing again last week into Donald Trump’s inauguration.

If recent history is a guide, this year could bring some nice gains in precious metals. Bloomberg reports there have been gains in the gold market in the year following 6 of the past 7 presidents’ first inauguration. The average gain is 15%, dramatically outperforming the S&P 500 which loses, on average, about 1%.

Recent gains in metals were driven largely by weakening in the Federal Reserve Note, aka the dollar. The dollar lost ground despite some hawkish remarks from Janet Yellen. Her speech was overshadowed by comments from Donald Trump. He expressed concerns about what the strong U.S. dollar means for the U.S. balance of trade – particularly when it comes to China. The DXY index fell back toward levels last seen in early December.

This week, investors will continue watching events in Washington DC. Trump is expected to sign more executive orders today. There will also be economic data to digest, including the first estimate of 4th quarter GDP, which will be published Friday.
