Gold Gathers Strength Amid Global UncertaintyRight now, gold is benefiting from a convergence of highly favorable conditions for a strong bullish trend. Growing concerns about a global trade war have triggered widespread risk-off sentiment, driving capital flows into safe-haven assets like gold. As a result, the precious metal has maintained an impressive upward momentum throughout the past week and is currently stabilizing around $3,235.
From my personal view, the U.S. dollar is showing clear signs of weakness — and that only adds fuel to gold’s rally. The $3,300 mark looks like the next logical milestone, with $3,500 as a longer-term target if the current trend holds. Recent corrections in gold have been shallow and brief, which reflects persistent buying pressure and no signs of a distribution phase at the top.
This week, we should pay close attention to major monetary policy events, including meetings from the Bank of Canada, the ECB, and a speech by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell. These events could bring increased volatility to the market. However, if central banks hold or cut rates as expected, it will provide even stronger psychological and technical support for gold.
Personally, I remain optimistic about the bullish outlook on XAUUSD — how about you?
