Technical Overview
Gold price reverses from a two-week low around $2,012 as geopolitical uncertainty improves appeal for safe-haven assets. The precious metal witnesses strong demand in the London session but is expected to face volatility as the US CPI data is set to release.
The Gold price hovers near the upward-sloping border of a Symmetrical Triangle chart pattern plotted from the December 13 low at $1,973. Meanwhile, the downward-sloping trendline border of the same pattern from the December 28 high is at $2,088. The Symmetrical Triangle formation indicates a sharp volatility contraction amid indecisiveness among market participants. A breakout usually follows it in one direction or another. The bias is generally for a breakout in the same direction as the preceding trend, which, in this case, is higher.
Fundamental Overview
Gold price (XAU/USD) delivers a swift recovery as the appeal of safe-haven assets improves amid escalating Middle East tensions. The recovery move in the Gold price will be tested by the United States Consumer Price Index (CPI) data for January, which will be published at 13:30 GMT. The consensus shows that price pressures are expected to have softened as the Federal Reserve (Fed) has been holding interest rates in the range of 5.25%-5.50% for longer.
The inflation data will significantly impact the outlook for interest rates. Softer inflation would be positive for Gold as it makes it more likely interest rates will fall, lowering the opportunity cost of holding Gold, which is non-yielding.
The Fed has been consistently pushing back expectations of aggressive rate cuts in 2024, believing that achieving its dual mandate (2% core inflation and full employment) remains out of sight.
Labor demand in the US has remained robust and the scale of economic activities is improving significantly despite higher interest rates. Fed policymakers demand more evidence to ensure price stability as it is crucial for achieving the dual mandate before the commencement of the rate-cut campaign. Softer-than-expected inflation data would uplift hopes of rate cuts.
Easing price pressures would build significant pressure on the US Dollar and bond yields, further supporting Gold since it is priced in US Dollars. Investors will take out liquidity from the US Dollar in a case of decelerating inflation data, as this would allow the Fed to roll back its hawkish interest rate stance.
