Gold Price Forecast
Global gold prices are rising despite the USD index increasing. As of 6:30 PM, the US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback's volatility against six major currencies, is at 104.262 points (up 0.19%).
Gold prices tend to rise with the potential for the US Federal Reserve (FED) to cut interest rates in September and amid increasing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, while investors shift their focus to the FED meeting this week.
The FED will meet over two days, July 30-31, and is expected to keep interest rates at 5.25-5.5%. However, the unexpected rise in the June 2024 unemployment rate, cooling inflation, and statements from top FED officials suggest a potential 25 basis point rate cut in September 2024.
Gold, a safe-haven asset in times of economic and geopolitical risk, typically increases in value under low-interest conditions.
