Gold price forecast

World gold prices fell as profit-taking pressure increased, in the context of the USD recovering and US Treasury bond yields rising slightly. This development caused buying power in the precious metals market to somewhat slow down, although risk-worrying sentiment in the international market is still present.

According to records, June gold futures fell deeply, while silver prices also faced significant selling pressure. Analysts believe that at the present time, investors are prioritizing monitoring the strength of the greenback and the developments of US bond yields, instead of just reacting to geopolitical tensions.

However, the market still does not have enough momentum to support gold. Tensions in the Middle East continue to cast a shadow over investor sentiment after a series of new developments related to Iran, the Strait of Hormuz and tough statements from the US.

The risk of energy transport disruption through this strategic area has pushed oil prices up, thereby increasing concerns about global inflation.

A Bloomberg report said that the accumulated economic impact from weeks of conflict in the Middle East may begin to become clearer in a series of business surveys to be released in the near future. According to this assessment, the market is particularly concerned about the possibility that the global economy faces the risk of "inflation stagnation" - that is, growth slows down but price pressure remains high.

International Monetary Fund (IMF) Managing Director Kristalina Georgieva said that even if the conflict cools down soon, the global economy also needs significantly more time to recover. The IMF has also lowered its global growth forecast for 2026, while raising its inflation forecast due to the impact of rising energy and food prices.

Technically, analysts believe that the 5,000 USD/ounce mark continues to be an important resistance level for gold prices. In the opposite direction, the 4,500 USD/ounce zone is considered a strong support level in the short term.

In the context of high geopolitical risks, high oil prices and increased concerns about inflation, gold is likely to still maintain its role as a safe haven channel of interest. However, short-term correction pressure may continue if the USD and US bond yields continue to rise.

Gold price data is compared to the previous day.

The world gold and silver market operates through two main pricing mechanisms. The first is the spot market, where the buying and selling and immediate delivery prices are listed. The second is the futures market, where prices are set for future delivery.

Due to the impact of year-end position restructuring and market liquidity, the December gold futures contract is currently the most actively traded contract on the CME exchange.
