Gold price forecast

After a strong increase at the end of the week, many organizations and experts believe that the short-term trend of gold prices is still volatile, as the market is waiting for new signals from the US economy and the monetary policy of the US Federal Reserve (Fed).

Kitco's latest weekly gold survey shows that Wall Street experts do not have a clear consensus on the outlook for precious metal prices. Among the 18 analysts participating in the survey, 9 people (50%) predict that gold prices may continue to increase next week. Conversely, 4 experts (22%) believe that precious metals are likely to adjust down, while the remaining 5 people (28%) believe that the market may move sideways as risk increases and decreases are quite balanced.

In the group of individual investors, optimistic sentiment still prevailed. An online survey of 340 small traders showed that 62% of participants expected gold prices to continue to rise next week. Meanwhile, 16% believed that prices could fall and 22% predicted that gold would fluctuate in a narrow range.

The developments of gold prices next week are forecast to be greatly affected by a series of important US economic data. The market will pay special attention to the consumer price index (CPI) report, the number of unemployment claims, housing data and indicators related to economic growth. This information is considered an important basis for assessing the Fed's interest rate outlook in the coming time.

Previously, gold prices had increased sharply in the last trading session of the week when many US economic data sent out negative signals. The newly released report showed that US retail sales in January fell 0.2%, reflecting a weakening of consumer spending. At the same time, the labor market also disappointed when the economy lost 92,000 jobs in February, completely contrary to previous job growth expectations.

According to Mr. Jeffrey Roach - chief economist of LPL Financial, the US labor market is showing signs of slowing down after a period of weak growth in 2025. He believes that if economic data continues to worsen, the Fed may have to consider easing monetary policy sooner to support the economy.

In the context of interest rate prospects that may decrease and the US economy signaling slowdown, many experts believe that gold still has the opportunity to maintain its role as a safe haven channel, thereby continuing to receive investor interest in the coming time.
