Gold Price Forecast
World gold prices are under pressure amid the rising USD. Recorded at 9:40 a.m. on February 1, the US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback's fluctuations against six major currencies, was at 108.360 points (up 0.68%).
After breaking through the record of 2,800 USD/ounce, the gold price increase was hindered by profit-taking wave of investors. However, the precious metal still received positive reviews from experts.
According to Neils Christensen - analyst of Kitco News, gold prices are anchored high in the context of US inflation data remaining high, in line with forecasts.
The core personal consumption expenditures (PCE) index - the Federal Reserve's preferred inflation gauge, which excludes volatile food and energy prices - rose 0.2% last month, up from a 0.1% increase in November. The increase in consumer prices was in line with analysts' forecasts.
Core inflation rose 2.8% over the past 12 months, unchanged from November's reading, the Commerce Department reported on Friday.
Analysts say the latest inflation data paints a mixed picture for gold. High consumer prices will make it difficult for the Federal Reserve to cut interest rates in the near future. However, uncontrolled inflation also poses risks to the economy, thereby reinforcing gold's safe-haven role.
In addition, high inflation and interest rates could increase risks to the already volatile stock market, creating additional momentum to support gold prices.
Meanwhile, Bob Haberkorn - senior market strategist at RJO Futures - said that the conflicting signals from the FED and the current Donald Trump administration are also causing instability in the market... Mr. Trump wants to cut interest rates, while the FED wants to keep interest rates unchanged.
If high inflation and slow growth come together, the $3,000/ounce mark will be easy to reach, said Ricardo Evangelista, senior analyst at ActivTrades.
