Rising US Rate Cut Optimism Steers Gold to All-Time High

Gold prices hit a record high on Wednesday, driven by increased expectations of a September interest rate cut in the U.S. Traders see a 100% chance of this cut, according to the CME FedWatch Tool. Fed officials, including Chair Jerome Powell, have expressed confidence that inflation is nearing the Fed's target, hinting at potential rate cuts.

Key Drivers:
  • Federal Reserve's Rate Cut Expectations: Traders are confident of a rate cut in September, boosting gold's appeal.
  • Inflation Target: Fed officials are optimistic that inflation is approaching the 2% target, which supports the case for rate cuts.
  • Geopolitical Risks and Recession Threats: These factors could drive gold prices further to $2,600-$2,700 by the second half of 2024.

    Alex Ebkarian of Allegiance Gold highlights that the anticipation of rate cuts and central banks purchasing more gold over U.S. Treasuries are key catalysts driving current price highs. However, he warns of potential volatility as the market confirms these trends.
