“We rose too far, too fast,” Jim Pogoda, an investor in Summit, New Jersey, and a former precious-metals trader for Mitsubishi International Corp., said in an e-mail. Still, “the bullish arguments - euro-zone debt fears, continued unrest and potential for spreading in the Middle East and north Africa region, and poor long-term prospects for the dollar - remain intact.”
Immediate-delivery gold fell $2, or 0.1 percent, to $1,531.57 an ounce by 8:57 a.m. in London. The metal is down 0.3 percent this week. Gold for August delivery was little changed at $1,532.30 an ounce on the Comex in New York.
Concern about faster inflation, Europe’s debt crisis, a weakening dollar and fighting in Libya boosted gold to a record $1,577.57 on May 2. Prices are up 7.8 percent in 2011 after climbing the past 10 years, the longest run of gains in at least nine decades.
The dollar was little changed near a four-week low against six major currencies before a report that may show U.S. employers probably hired fewer workers in May. Manufacturing in China, Europe and the U.S. slowed last month.
Fifteen of 17 traders, investors and analysts surveyed by Bloomberg, or 88 percent, said bullion will rise next week. One predicted lower prices and one was neutral.
Silver for immediate delivery fell 1.5 percent to $35.6375 an ounce in London. Palladium declined 0.4 percent to $768.25 an ounce. Platinum was little changed at $1,813.75 an ounce.
