Gold Price Forecast

World gold prices fell amid a stronger US dollar. At 9:00 a.m. on February 12, the US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback's movements against six major currencies, stood at 107.875 points (up 0.08%).

Gold prices fell from historic levels as investors assessed congressional testimony from Fed Chairman Jerome Powell and new trade policy statements from US President Donald Trump.

Market sentiment was largely driven by two key developments. First, President Donald Trump’s announcement on Sunday that he would impose a 25% tariff on imported steel and aluminum, without exceptions or exemptions, has raised concerns about potential trade conflicts.

The protectionist measures are intended to support struggling domestic industries, but also increase the risk of retaliation from trading partners, potentially leading to a broader trade war.

Second, the testimony of Fed Chairman Jerome Powell also had a big impact on market developments. In his opening remarks, Mr. Powell emphasized that the Fed remains cautious about cutting interest rates, citing a strong economy and inflation that has consistently exceeded the Fed's 2% target.

Investors are closely watching Powell’s two-day testimony for clues on upcoming monetary policy, especially with consumer price index (CPI) data due out. If inflation is higher than expected, market expectations for two rate cuts this year could be challenged.

The pullback from record highs also reflects profit-taking after a sharp rally since mid-December, when gold rose about $370, or 14.25%. The pullback suggests investors are taking advantage of the opportunity to lock in profits while reassessing the outlook for monetary policy and trade risks.

FXTM senior research analyst Lukman Otunuga said the uncertainty and unpredictability surrounding President Donald Trump's term could increase demand for gold.

Meanwhile, Kitco Metals senior market analyst Jim Wyckoff said that ahead of any new statements from President Donald Trump, the potential uncertainty could sustain prices and profit-taking scenarios like the current one, could be viewed by bullish traders as a buying opportunity on dips.
