Gold price forecast

Gold prices are under strong downward pressure amid rising USD and US government bond yields, while the market is cautiously awaiting further signals about the monetary policy orientation of the US Federal Reserve (Fed).

The focus of investors' attention today is the minutes of the Fed's June monetary policy meeting. The market expects this document to more clearly reveal the views of policymakers on inflation, interest rates and US economic prospects.

In the short term, gold prices still face many obstacles. Tense developments in the Middle East are increasing the risk of energy supply disruptions, pushing oil prices up. A prolonged increase in energy prices could put inflationary pressure back, thereby limiting the Fed's ability to soon ease monetary policy.

In addition, the recovery of the USD and US bond yields continue to be disadvantageous to gold. As yields increase, the opportunity cost of holding non-genuine assets like gold is also greater.

However, the medium and long-term outlook for the precious metal still receives positive reviews.

Mr. Craig Hemke - an analyst at Sprott Money - believes that gold and silver prices may have formed the bottom of 2026. According to this expert, expectations of a Fed cycle of sharp interest rate hikes may have peaked after the June policy meeting.

Mr. Hemke said that an interest rate hike may still occur, but the possibility of the Fed continuously raising interest rates is not high. In case energy prices cool down and inflationary pressure weakens, monetary policy may gradually shift to a less rigid direction. This will be an important factor supporting gold price recovery.

From a long-term perspective, the demand for gold hoarding from central banks continues to lay the foundation for the market. China maintains a trend of increasing gold reserves, while many other countries are also promoting diversification of reserve assets.

Notably, the Central Bank of Tanzania purchased about 28 tons of gold in 18 months to strengthen foreign exchange reserves, support the domestic currency and increase the stability of the financial system.

In the context of strong gold price fluctuations, analysts believe that the short-term trend will depend significantly on policy signals from the Fed, oil price developments and geopolitical tensions. However, the buying power of central banks and the prospect of less rigid monetary policy may still be important supporting factors for gold prices in the coming time.
