"Hello everyone!
Last week, the price of gold continued its slight decline, dropping from $2,029.6 per ounce at the end of the previous week to $2,018.5, a decrease of $8 after a week of trading.
Gold is currently under pressure from profit-taking, in the context of recently released US economic data that could impact the Federal Reserve's decision on whether to cut interest rates sooner or later. At the beginning of this new year, the price of gold seems to be moving sideways and still holding steady above the $2,000 threshold.
To make a breakthrough, the gold market needs encouraging signals from Fed officials. Some recent assessments suggest that the strong price increase of gold in late 2023 had anticipated the possibility of the Fed reversing its monetary policy. With the current caution of the Fed, profit-taking pressure on gold is increasing. At the same time, the continuous new records in the US stock market also reduce the attractiveness of gold.
In the short term, gold may face some negativity, but in the long run, it is expected to continue its upward trend. This is not only due to the possibility of the Fed cutting interest rates but also due to the pressure to reduce the use of USD from major economies, including China.
What about you? What do you predict for the price of gold this week?"
