Gold Spot / U.S. DollarUpdated GOLD MARKET ANALYSIS AND COMMENTARY - [Feb 10 - Feb 14]
This week, rising Treasury yields and the threat of a global trade war are contributing to a stagflation environment, causing investors to rush into gold, and spot gold prices at one point climbed as high as $2,886/oz.
US President Donald Trump has launched trade war 2.0 with the imposition of strong tariffs on imports from Canada, Mexico and China. The 25% tariffs on Canada and Mexico were postponed for a month, but the 10% tariffs on China took effect. China responded with 10-15% tariffs on US energy and agricultural products, effective from February 10, 2025. Trade war 2.0 expands in scope compared to 2018, includes many major trading partners and takes place in parallel with the US-China technology war. Countries with large trade surpluses with the US face the risk of becoming new tariff targets.
If negotiations between the US and its partners fail to reach an agreement, retaliation could escalate, disrupting global trade, weakening economic growth and creating inflationary pressures, leading to stagflation, thereby boosting gold prices. On the contrary, if the Trump administration "cools down" the trade war by reaching an agreement after imposing tariffs, gold prices may decrease due to weakening shelter demand.
Some economic data affecting gold prices next week:
Tuesday: US Federal Reserve (FED) Chairman Jerome Powell testifies before the Senate Banking Committee.
Wednesday: US consumer price index (CPI), FED Chairman Jerome Powell testifies before the House Financial Services Committee.
Thursday: US producer price index (PPI), US weekly unemployment benefit applications.
Friday: US retail sales
📌Technically, gold prices still maintain an upward trend in the medium and long term. However, downward corrections can occur at any time considering shorter time frames such as H4, D1.
On the H4 chart, the price can adjust to around the hard resistance level which is also the dynamic resistance level around 2790 before entering an upward trend again.
Notable technical levels are listed below.
Support: 2,844 – 2,834USD
Resistance: 2,869 – 2,886 – 2,891USD
