Tremblay said that real <a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/markets\/bonds\/today.aspx\">interest rates<\/a> are likely to stay negative in the U.S. in the next two years, which will be supportive of the <a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/metal\/gold-price.aspx\">gold price<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>UBS said in a research note today that the market attitude towards <a href=\"https:\/\/stockmarketwatch.com\/metal\/gold-price.aspx\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"4\" title=\"gold price today\">gold<\/a> for most of January could be summed up in two words; cautious optimism. UBS said that investors were reluctant to add to positions aggressively as memories of the disappointment in fourth quarter lingered. UBS said that a fresh catalyst was needed and the FOMC outcome on Wednesday fit the bill as more accommodative monetary policy is a very good foundation for gold to build on the next move higher.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/thestockmarketwatch.com\/metal\/silver-price.aspx\">Silver prices<\/a> are also gaining in trading today.
