World gold prices today started the new week quite quietly, however, investors expect gold to overcome gloom and grow strongly this week.
As of 6:30 am this morning (Vietnam time), the world spot gold price on Kitco was trading at 1,283 USD/ounce, not much different from yesterday's session.
Gold prices this week continue to be predicted to have positive developments. In addition, the increase in gold is also believed to be due to the decline of the USD when US economic data was released with less positive than expected.
Last week, world gold prices benefited from the escalating US-China trade tensions. After the embargo on Huawei's component purchases and Google's suspension of service for Android software, the US continued to put 5 more Chinese technology company names under control.
This caused the stock market to reverse and lose points in the last 2 sessions of the week. Gold, on the other hand, increased in price.
According to Kitco News, the world gold market will escape the current gloom and quickly regain its upward momentum next week. The latest survey by Kitco News on gold price prospects shows that the majority of analysts and investors on Wall Street and Main Street expect gold to increase in price next week (May 27 - 31, 2019).
Analysts led by Eugen Weinberg at Commerzbank said a resounding victory for the Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi could be a positive factor for gold.
During the election campaign, Mr. Modi promised to increase voting gifts for rural people. This is the largest group of gold consumers in India to date, and the gift would allow them to buy large quantities of gold, the analysts said.
