Gold Stocks to Watch april 12 2012

Gold Stocks to Watch april 12 2012, spot gold april 12 2012 : After easing the past two days due to the Alcoa generated rally, gold prices are snapping back on a lackluster jobs report. While the labor market is still showing growth, the anemic pace will eventually be thrust to the forefront of concerns that investors have to address. The Italian bond auction also gave gold bulls some respite as 3-year borrowing costs increased.

On the equity markets you get the sense that the European and US markets have decoupled. The EU still lacks a sustainable solution for their debt issues. Noted gold bulls like Max Keiser insists that the US is living on borrowed time. If true, then when does that time run out. If we have a stellar earnings season, the prospects for QE3 become dim unless the jobs picture deteriorate. A lot of ifs out there for gold investors and that’s why you are not seeing a massive move in either direction.

The gold spot price is currently up $15 to 1,674.90 per ounce.

The SPDR Gold Trust (ETF) (NYSE: GLD) is currently trading 0.96% higher at $162.58, the Market Vectors ETF Trust (NYSE: GDX) is currently trading 2.54% higher at $47.66, and the iShares Gold Trust (ETF) (NYSE: IAU) is currently trading 0.99% higher at $16.31.
