Gold price forecast

After many consecutive weeks of optimism, the latest survey results show that the Western market sentiment suddenly Differentiated significantly, as gold prices have just experienced a series of strong increases and then adjusted shortly at the end of the week.

This week, 15 analysts participated in the survey. Wall Street analysts have somewhat eased their expectations for price increases. Of these, 9 people (equivalent to 60%) predicted gold prices would increase this week, 4 people (27%) expected prices to decrease, and the remaining 2 people (13%) expected gold prices to remain flat.

Jim Wyckoff - senior analyst at Kitco - predicted that gold prices will " decrease slightly or remain flat". He said the market needs a technical adjustment after the recent strong increase.

Mr. Alex Kuptsikevich - senior analyst at FxPro - said that after more than two consecutive months of increase, gold prices are likely to decrease next week.

The record rally of over $4,200 an ounce comes from a wave of disbelief in the currency. Governments are struggling with budget deficits, huge public debt and central banks are being required to cut or keep interest rates low.

Investors have therefore lost faith in bonds and currencies, looking to precious metals. Gold has been rising for nine consecutive weeks something that has only happened five times since the 1970s, he said.

Mr. James Stanley - senior strategist at Forex.com - predicted that gold prices may increase in the short term: "There is a clear correction before the market closes at the end of the week, I think that will help relieve most of the profit-taking pressure. I expect the support zone to appear soon early next week.

The current rally is so strong that the only doubt is that it is happening too fast, he added. Therefore, I still maintain a positive view until there are clearer signs of reversal".

Economic data to watch this week

As the US government remains closed, markets are forced to rely on private sector data, including home sales reports and weekly manufacturing data.

However, the market will still receive some official inflation figures, as the US Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) has summoned a limited number of employees to release the September CPI report.

The move is aimed at helping the US government calculate the annual cost of living adjustment for social security pensioners before November 1.

The US home sales data for September is scheduled to be released on Thursday, while the September CPI report will be released on Friday, followed by the S&P preliminary PMI.

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