Earlier this week gold suffered its biggest one-day drop in more than three years after Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke disappointed investors who had hoped for a strong signal of more stimulus. Goldman Sachs' chief U.S. economist, Jan Hatzius, wrote in a note to clients that Bernanke's "prepared statement offered no clear signal about further easing." The reduced potential for quantitative easing led to a rally in the U.S. dollar and substantial weakness in precious metals.
In his semi-annual speech before Congress, Bernanke acknowledged improvement in the labor market and said that headwinds such as Europe and a weak housing market would fade beyond 2012.
