Gold price forecast

World gold prices increased despite the increase of the USD. Recorded at 6:15 a.m. on February 25, the US Dollar Index measuring the fluctuations of the greenback against 6 major currencies was at 106.620 points (up 0.09%).

Gold prices continued to increase slightly, hitting a new record high as safe-haven demand increased. Investors are stepping up buying in gold ETFs, while technical factors also contribute to the increase. In contrast to gold, silver prices tend to weaken and start to stagnate.

On the stock exchange, the price of gold futures for April increased by 7.2 USD, to 2,960.1 USD/ounce. Meanwhile, March silver futures fell $0.392 to $22,625 an ounce.

Geopolitical concerns continue to be a driving force supporting the gold market. The ceasefire between Israel and Hamas remains fragile, while negotiations on a ceasefire between Russia and Ukraine have not made clear progress. In addition, US trade protection moves have also increased cautious sentiment in financial markets, thereby boosting demand for precious metals.

Technically, gold futures for April are still in an uptrend with buyers dominating. The next target is to push prices above $3,000/ounce. If prices fall below $2,850/ounce, a downward correction may appear.

Currently, the first resistance level is 2,974 USD/ounce, followed by 2,985 USD/ounce. The most recent support level was at 2,936.8 USD/ounce and the next important support level was 2,900 USD/ounce.

Developments in the outside market show that Nymex crude oil futures are stable around 70.75 USD/barrel. The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note is currently around 4.437%.

Notable economic events that may affect gold prices

Tuesday: US consumer confidence index.

Wednesday: New home sales in the US.

Thursday: US Q4 preliminary GDP, US long-term goods orders, US weekly jobless claims, US pending home sales.

Friday: US core PCE index, personal income and spending.
