Gold Price Forecast

World gold prices fell amid an increase in the US dollar. At 10:15 a.m. on January 28, the US Dollar Index, which measures the greenback's fluctuations against six major currencies, stood at 107.730 points (up 0.63%).

According to Kitco, the world gold price fell sharply when the stock market faced a large wave of sell-off, causing confusion for investors and traders. The mentality of "if you can't sell what you want, you'll sell what you have" is spreading in the market.

However, safe-haven demand for gold has not yet emerged, although that could change if the stock sell-off extends into Tuesday. Meanwhile, the U.S. Treasury bond market saw safe-haven demand during the day.

Over the weekend, news broke that China was challenging the US for leadership in artificial intelligence (AI). DeepSeek, a small and emerging Chinese AI company, reportedly developed a large language model that rivals leading US models, at a fraction of the cost.

The news has sparked a sharp sell-off in global tech stocks, with investors reassessing capital spending and valuations for U.S. AI models amid the threat from cheaper Chinese AI models that are said to be as good or superior.

This week, major tech companies began reporting fourth-quarter earnings. Before DeepSeek made headlines, earnings were forecast to be at their lowest level in nearly two years.

Meanwhile, China’s economy has started 2025 on a less than encouraging note, with the People’s Bank of China pumping a record amount of money into the financial system this month. China’s non-manufacturing and manufacturing PMIs both came in below expectations and lower than last month, which is weighing on the gold market as China is a net importer of raw materials, including precious metals.

The US economic focus of the week is the US Federal Reserve (FED) meeting. Analysts predict that interest rates will be kept unchanged at the FOMC meeting, which will take place from Tuesday to Wednesday afternoon. The meeting will conclude with a speech by FED Chairman Jerome Powell.

Notable economic data this week

Tuesday: US durable goods orders, consumer confidence.

Wednesday: Monetary policy decisions by the Bank of Canada and the US Federal Reserve.

Thursday: ECB monetary policy decision, US Q4 GDP, US weekly jobless claims, US pending home sales.

Friday: US PCE index, personal income and spending.
