Gold is buffeted by CPI, and a massive landslide in Turkey traps miners

Update: 2024-02-17

Description

Gold recovered after tumbling mid week due to a hotter than expected CPI number, noted mining audiences manager Michael McCrae.

On Saturday McCrae and Kitco correspondent Paul Harris recorded Kitco Roundtable.

On Tuesday the Labor Statistics said that its Consumer Price Index rose 0.3% in January, higher than the Consensus forecasts of 0.2% increase. Markets tumbled and gold dropped below the 2000 level.

The week started with a tragic mine accident in Turkey. SSR Mining suspended production at its Copler mine after a landslide resulted in at least nine miners missing.
