About 6 weeks ago, gold was selling significantly higher at $1302.80 per ounce, the high point just before the US Presidential Elections.  There has been a declining trend in gold prices since Donald Trump was elected president of the United States. Additionally, last week’s Federal Open Market Committee decision to increase interest rates also drove the price of gold down.
