Gold was set for its most volatile day in two weeks, with price swings of nearly US$80, just shy of late August's US$104 difference between session peaks and troughs.
The focus was on lack of growth and perhaps the Swiss decision and some stabilisation of (equity) markets has perhaps made people a bit less depressed about growth and that buying has come out of the market.
Reflecting the investor retreat from gold over the past few days, even with a rise in the price to record highs, was a fifth consecutive decline in exchange-traded fund holdings of gold – a key gauge of investment demand. Holdings are at 67.38 million ounces, their lowest in six weeks.
Support from current levels is likely to continue to come from the euro zone debt crisis. The bloc's most indebted nations are struggling to convince investors of their commitment to reduce debt, as Germany, the euro zone's biggest economy, faces opposition to further aid.
In a closely watched decision, Germany's Constitutional Court on Wednesday rejected a series of lawsuits aimed at blocking Germany's participation in bailout packages for Greece and other euro zone countries.
It said however that parliament must have a bigger say in future rescues, which could further slow down Europe's response to the debt crisis.
The news helped assets seen as higher risk to rise, briefly lifting the euro against the dollar but pressuring German Bund futures. European shares rose sharply, bouncing from a two-year closing low. For the latest updates PRESS CTR + D or visit Stock Market news Today
