Gold and silver prices were sharply lower on Thursday due to profit taking after the recent upsurge that saw gold hit a six-month high earlier this week and silver an eight-month peak. A strong rally in the U.S. dollar index and U.S. Treasury yields also put pressure on the precious metals. The U.S. ADP national employment report showed 235,000 jobs created in December, compared to the consensus forecast of up 153,000. The gold market saw prices falter following the stronger-than-expected data, which also helped a rally in the U.S. dollar index and pushed U.S. Treasury yields higher. Traders and investors are now focusing on today’s U.S. December employment situation report from the Labour Department. Technically, gold has support at $1818-1805 while resistance is at $1845-1858.

Gold prices, meanwhile, were on course for a third consecutive weekly increase after falling more than 1%, with the market eagerly anticipating a crucial US employment data to determine the Federal Reserve’s stance on rate hikes.
