Gold price forecast

World gold prices decreased slightly while silver maintained its upward momentum. December gold contract decreased by 3.5 USD to 3,385 USD/ounce, while September silver contract increased by 0.302 USD to 38.075 USD/ounce.

Investors are focusing on the Jackson Hole annual conference organized by the US Federal Reserve (FED) Kansas City branch, which opened today in the US. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell will speak on Friday morning, which is expected to reveal monetary policy orientation and the possibility of a rate cut in September.

Minutes from the July FOMC meeting released yesterday afternoon showed that most Fed officials were still concerned about the risk of inflation exceeding the level rather than the labor market.

Some members emphasized that inflation has remained above 2% for a long time and there is a risk of inflation expectations losing anchor if the impact of tariffs continues.

In other news, Switzerland's gold exports to the US in July surged to nearly 51 tons, the highest since March. The total value of gold exports of more than 36 billion USD accounted for 2/3 of the trade surplus between Switzerland and the US in the first quarter. However, the Swiss National Bank believes that this figure does not accurately reflect the trade balance between the two economies.

Technically, December gold delivered the short-term advantage with a market rating of 6.5 points (up 1-10). The most recent resistance level was at 3,400 USD/ounce and 3,403.6 USD/ounce, while the important support was at 3,353.4 USD and 3,350 USD/ounce.

The target for buyers is to break the $3,500/ounce mark, while the sellers will aim to pull prices down to the bottom of July at $3,319.2/ounce.
