(CNBC, Mon. Mar. 7th, 2022) – Palladium briefly reached a record high on Monday amid fears of supply disruptions in the wake of an escalating Russia-Ukraine crisis.
Spot gold rose 1.5% to $1,997.91and briefly scaled the $2,000 mark, an all-time high since Aug. 19, 2020. U.S. gold futuresrose about 1.77% to $2,001.40.
“Gold will likely find some heavy traffic around the $2,000 level initially, but once it is cleared, assuming no change in the Ukraine situation, it will quickly move to the $2,100 region and on to new all-time highs,” said OANDA senior analyst Jeffrey Halley.WATCH NOWVIDEO04:46Strategas’ Chris Verrone charts out gold’s next move
Palladium dropped 0.23% to $2,995.39 per ounce around 4 p.m. ET after hitting an all-time high of more than $3,440 earlier in the day.
Holdings of the world’s largest gold-backed exchange-traded fund, SPDR Gold Trust, rose to their highest since mid-March 2021 on Friday.
Spot gold may keep rising towards $2,065 per ounce, according to Reuters’ technical analyst Wang Tao.
Russia accounts for 40% of global production of the auto-catalyst metal, used by automakers in catalytic converters to curb emissions.
“We’re looking at a very significant pick-up in concerns around the disruptions with Ukraine seemingly because the conflict is showing signs of broadening,” said Ilya Spivak, a currency strategist at DailyFX, pointing to speculations about more Western sanctions, perhaps even a formal ban on Russian oil imports.
Spot silver was flat at $25.62 per ounce ad was platinum at $1,121.23.
