🖥 GOLD MARKET ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY - [April 01 - April 05]

Updated
This week, international gold prices rose sharply from 2,163 USD/oz to 2,236 USD/oz, closing at 2,233 USD/oz. The increase is attributed to positive US economic growth in Q4 2023, although it slowed compared to previous quarters. Inflation is also decreasing, leading investors to anticipate interest rate cuts by the FED from June onwards.

The forecast for March 2024 non-agricultural employment (NFP) is 198,000 jobs, down from the previous period's 275,000. If this forecast is accurate, it will support the expectation of an interest rate cut by the FED, causing gold prices to rise. However, if NFP exceeds expectations, it could negatively impact gold prices. Additionally, the tone of the Fed Chairman's speech next week is uncertain.

Gold prices are expected to rise in the long term due to the slowdown of the US economy and the potential recession risks. The inverted bond yield curve indicates that the FED will likely implement three interest rate cuts this year. Central banks buying gold will also support its long-term prices. However, there is a short-term risk of profit-taking by investors, particularly ETFs.

GOLD solid gains, extending positive momentum


📌According to technical analysis, gold prices are still in an uptrend and may reach $2,300/oz. If economic data is negative, prices may face profit-taking pressure with support levels at $2,150-2,100-2,080/oz. Trading plan: sell at $2,300 and buy at $2,150.
Note
GOLD in March marked a record month of increase
Note
After the holiday, world gold prices continued to increase rapidly. The main reason may be that central banks around the world continue to buy physical gold. Rising demand has directly impacted gold prices, pushing prices to record highs.
Note
Precious metals markets have benefited from expectations of interest rate cuts by the Fed. In addition to investors buying to seek profits, the need for safe havens increased sharply at central banks.

The price of substituted gold may increase to 2,300 USD/ounce in the second quarter of this year, when the demand for gold to shelter cash flow continues to increase due to geopolitical tensions.
