Gold price forecast

World gold prices fell after the important US inflation report announced results much higher than expected.

The US producer price index (PPI) in July increased by 0.9% compared to the previous month, much higher than the sideways level in June and far exceeding the forecast of 0.2%. This is the strongest increase since June 2022.

This report reinforces the hawkish view on US monetary policy, which does not want the US Federal Reserve (FED) to cut interest rates soon. Compared to the same period last year, the overall PPI increased to 3.3% - the highest level in 5 months and exceeded the forecast by 2.5%. Core PPI (excluding food and energy) also increased by 0.9%, higher than the forecast of 0.2%.

For the year, core PPI increased by 3.7% compared to 2.6% previously. The hotter-than-expected PPI data in July onlyred the possibility of the Fed cutting interest rates by 25 basis points in September, but almost ruled out the possibility of a 50 basis point cut that a few investors had expected before.

Technically, December gold buyers still have a clear advantage in the short term. The next upside target for buyers is to close above the strong resistance zone of $3,500/ounce. The closest downside target for the bears is to push prices below the solid technical support level at the July low of $3,319/ounce.

The first resistance level was at the overnight peak of $3,423.80/ounce, then $3,450. First support at the lowest level of the week was 3,379.1 USD/ounce, followed by 3,350 USD/ounce.

In other markets, the USD index increased after the PPI report; crude oil prices increased and fluctuated around 63.75 USD/barrel; the yield on the 10-year US Treasury note is currently around 4.2%.

Note: Gold price data is compared to a day earlier.
