Most probably the uncertainty post-election, and then further uncertainty around the Capitol riots kept gold higher for longer.
The re-test of the $1675/$1700 support should be in soon, and then the resumption of the upward price move (QE, inflation, low real interest rates) for gold to lead the next commodities supercycle.
