Gold tests $1100 after bleak jobs report

The COMEX December gold futures contract closed up $6.40 Friday at $1095.70, trading between $1086.50 and $1101.90

November 5, p.m. excerpts:
(from Bloomberg) --
Gold futures jumped to a record, topping $1,100 an ounce, after the labor department said the unemployment rate in the U.S. reached a 26-year high of 10.2 percent in October. "There’s massive investment demand for gold," said Christoph Eibl, a co-founder of Tiberius Group. "I see more liquidity pumped in to lift the economies from bad news." The metal reached $1,101.90 in New York...more

"It's still a positive day with a high settlement and an uptrend," said Scott Meyers, senior trading analyst with Pioneer Futures division of MF Global. "The market looks like it will forge ahead and make a firm assault on $1,100 and settle above it next week"...more

It looks like the market is giving gold the green light regardless of what's going on in equities or the currency markets."...more
(from AP) --

(from Marketwatch) --
"With unemployment at 10%, the implications for Fed policy is that they have their hands tied and cannot defend the dollar," said Joe Foster, manager of the Van Eck International Investors Gold Fund. "We're going to see lots of new records going forward. By year end, it wouldn't surprise me to test $1,200 and then $1,300 by early next year before we see some consolidation."...more
