Gold price forecast

Mr. Tim Waterer - chief market analyst of financial services company KCM Trade, commented that gold prices below 3,300 USD/ounce have created great attraction, encouraging traders to buy. This is especially true in the context of current economic uncertainty, along with threats of additional tariffs from the US President Donald Trump administration.

Mr. Waterer said that the important support level is forming around 3,250 USD/ounce, which is likely to prevent further decline in gold prices. However, he warned that if this threshold is broken, gold prices could fall to $3,200/ounce.

Peter Grant - Vice President and senior metals strategist at Zaner Metals, said: "We are witnessing increased trade uncertainty as the expiration date of the tariffs on August 1 is approaching. It is a slight revival of safe-haven demand."

According to the World Gold Council (WGC)'s Gold Demand trend report for the second quarter of 2025, total demand for gold (including non-concentrated investments - OTC) in the second quarter reached 1,249 tons, up 3% over the same period in 2024, despite gold prices setting an all-time record. This increase is mainly due to strong investment demand in gold ETFs.

Demand for gold bars and gold bars which often decline in high-priced environments, also recorded a strong recovery.
