TVC:DXY   U.S. Dollar Index
Gold speculators increased their net long position by 43,000 during the week.

Silver speculators were much less bullish as they only increased their own net long position by 4,300 contracts.

This suggests that speculators are buying gold because they are risk averse and seeking defensive positioning.
