Gold Price Forecast

World gold prices fell at the end of the week despite the decline in the USD index. Recorded at 5:00 p.m. on January 5, 2025, the US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback's fluctuations against six major currencies, was at 108,800 points (down 0.38%).

Despite the downward trend in gold prices, Chantelle Schieven, Head of Research at Capitalight Research, said that the precious metal's price still retains its strength and the recent consolidation is the first major correction the precious metal has experienced in the past year.

"I'm not at all concerned about the volatility that we're seeing. I think this lull is healthy for the market," she said.

At the start of 2024, Schieven was the most bullish analyst among those in the London Bullion Market Association’s (LBMA) annual forecast. She predicted gold would hit $2,400 an ounce this year, and gold has already surpassed that level by nearly $400. Looking ahead, Schieven believes that gold still has plenty of room to rise.

Economic data to watch next week:

Tuesday: ISM services PMI, JOLTS job vacancies

Wednesday: ADP jobs report, FOMC meeting minutes

Thursday: Weekly Unemployment Report

Friday: Nonfarm payrolls, University of Michigan preliminary consumer sentiment index
