Gold and silver continued to be well supported by the global political tensions. There is no doubt it will stay this way for the foreseeable future as there are not any solutions for these conflicts at the moment.  The metals may attempt to the upside but traders will be hesitant ahead of the GDP number, Fed Decision tomorrow and Non-Farm payrolls on Friday. The PGMs are suffering from the same lackluster direction and will stay in range for the same reasons. Today’s US Consumer Confidence number came out 90.9 which is strong and should continue to keep the metals subdued.  Gold will find resistance at 1314 and support 1301, silver will continue to find resistance at 20.80 level. Platinum will find resistance at 1492/95 and support is 1472. Palladium has support at 873 and resistance at 889.
