GOLD expected to decrease this week.World gold price trades at 1997 USD/ounce. Compared to last week's closing session, world gold prices decreased slightly by 6 USD/ounce. Some analysts believe that the coming time will be challenging for gold. Currently, the gold market is under pressure because the November employment report in the US published last weekend was quite positive. Specifically, non-farm payrolls in the US in November created 199,000 new jobs, higher than the forecast 180,000 jobs and 150,000 jobs created in October. The unemployment rate in November was at 3.7%, lower than forecast and reached 3.9% in October. Average hourly income in November also increased from 0.2% in October to 0.4%, higher than the 0.3% forecast. The gold market is also under pressure because the US Federal Reserve (Fed) meeting will take place on December 12 and 13. Closing last week's trading session, gold prices fell sharply by more than 3% at the end of last week, causing the gold market to witness the strongest fluctuation since mid-August 2020. Many experts predict precious metal prices will decrease this week. After the jobs report and wage data released last week, the US Federal Reserve (Fed) may become more hawkish, which will push the USD and bond yields higher, putting pressure on for gold price.

GOLD ending the most volatile week in over 3 yearsLast week saw gold prices skyrocket, setting a new record of 2,149 USD. However, this price does not last long. Closing the weekly trading session, world gold price stood at 2,004 USD/ounce, down sharply to 68 USD/ounce compared to last week's closing session. Last week saw gold prices skyrocket, setting a new record of 2,149 USD. However, this price does not last long. Precious metal prices turned around and continuously plummeted, sometimes dropping to only 1,995 USD/ounce. With a fluctuation of 154 USD this week, the gold market witnessed the strongest weekly fluctuation since mid-August 2020. The employment data released this weekend is like "pouring cold water" on interest rate cut expectations. The number of jobs increased higher than expected combined with the falling unemployment rate, causing the market to postpone expectations of interest rate cuts to May, instead of March as before. It is forecasted that gold will see some downward price pressure next week. After Friday's jobs report, it's unlikely Fed Chairman Jerome Powell will change his hawkish stance, even if the central bank is expected to leave interest rates unchanged. Despite the positive long-term outlook, gold is susceptible to bad news. Gold may fall below 2,000 USD/ounce, to the support level of about 1,975 USD/ounce.

GOLD down more than 2% after hitting an all-time high Gold prices fell more than 2% after hitting an all-time high as currency futures traders increased bets the US Federal Reserve (FED) would cut interest rates next year. Gold remains supported by hopes that not only is the tightening cycle by the Fed and other central banks over but also by expectations of interest rate cuts. However, today's drop may reflect that the odds have gone too far on an interest rate cut. The gold market at the moment seems to reflect a change in sentiment rather than specific fundamentals. There was no specific catalyst that led to the rally to $2,150, and no specific event pushed the price sharply back to $2,000. US bond yields rose but only modestly, and the strong dollar does not explain the volatility.

Precious metal prices rose as comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell increased traders' confidence that the US central bank is done tightening monetary policy and Interest rates may be cut from March next year.

Markets predict the Fed will begin cutting interest rates in March and that by the end of next year, interest rates will be below 4%. In addition, gold is being strongly supported by seasonal factors. According to statistics over the past 6 years, gold has always increased during Christmas.

These comments pulled US 10-year bond yields down to a two-and-a-half-month low of 4.2470%.

Currently, investors are focusing their attention on Fed Chairman Jerome Powell's speech at the meeting taking place today, December 1.

GOLD exceeds 2,000 USD/ounceToday's world gold price increased when the US manufacturing PMI index (an index measuring economic activity) dropped from 50 points to 49.4 points. This data makes investors believe that the US economy is weakening. Accordingly, they expect the US Federal Reserve (FED) to soon reduce interest rates in 2024 to promote economic growth. Immediately, the currency market had a certain reaction. The USD Index dropped to 103.5 points, causing the USD to decrease in price compared to 6 other strong currencies, including: Euro, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK and CHF. Therefore, the world gold price last night had the conditions to rebound and surpass the resistance level of 2,000 USD/ounce. However, because the interest rate on 2-year US bonds increased to 4.95%, 5-year and 10-year bonds increased to 4.5% and 4.48% respectively, it attracted cash flow in the market, preventing hindering the increase in gold prices.

GOLD prices suddenly increased sharply todayWorld gold prices today (November 21) suddenly increased sharply when inflationary pressures in the US eased and the weak economy began to cool down. Analysts say that the US Federal Reserve (Fed) is not yet ready to change the trend of tightening monetary policy, which is making it impossible for hedge funds to access gold. Gold prices could reach $2,100/ounce despite recent data proving that the strength of the US economy shows signs of cracks. “The growth outlook will weaken significantly” starting in the fourth quarter of 2023 and continuing into the first half of next year.

GOLD reversing to the downside, support factors still remainLast week, the international financial market received a lot of negative employment information and retail sales in the US and UK, causing the USD to continue to decline. Specifically, this morning the Dollar-Index - measuring the strength of the USD in a basket of 6 major currencies - decreased by 0.07% to 103,850 points. The USD fell so last weekend investors stepped up their gold purchases. In particular, the world's largest gold trust fund SPDR last week's session bought a net 12.98 tons of gold in the session on November 17 alone. Increased demand pushed world gold prices last week up to 36 USD/ounce, equivalent to about 2% compared to the previous week's closing session. At the beginning of this week, the gold market was lacking economic information, so investors immediately took profits to recover capital and waited for more economic information. The market is lacking economic information, but Russia continues to be subject to new sanctions packages, which could increase geopolitical tensions in Ukraine. This may be a factor supporting the gold market during this period.

GOLD soaring high as unemployment increasesPrecious metal prices rebounded as US Treasury bond yields fell and inflationary pressures in the US were easing. US CPI remains unchanged in October 2023. US PPI also fell the strongest in three years. Previously, the Fed decided to keep the basic interest rate unchanged. However, US policymakers left open the possibility of raising interest rates later this year and implementing monetary policy throughout 2024 will be tighter than expected. Investors are still concerned about a series of short-term risks, making an economic "soft landing" impossible. The US House of Representatives has passed a temporary spending bill to avert a government shutdown, with broad support from lawmakers.

GOLD easing pressure from the USDDespite a slight decrease, experts still predict the future of gold prices optimistically. World gold price stood at 1,958 USD/ounce, down slightly by 5 USD/ounce compared to the same hour yesterday morning. This morning, the US Dollar Index increased 0.4% and the 10-year US Treasury bond yield recovered, putting downward pressure on gold prices. However, precious metal prices still remain at their highest level within the past week. Gold is anchored at a high price because countries are still promoting gold imports and increasing their reserves of this precious metal. China currently holds at least 33,000 tons of gold, many times the figure of 2,215 tons given by the World Gold Council and double the US level of 16,500 tons. CPI data from the US was lower than forecast, supporting gold prices. Expectations that in the fourth quarter, inflation will cool down even more. This will weaken the USD and push up gold prices. In the next 6 months, we forecast prices towards 2,100 USD/ounce. With yields rising again, gold will fall after the initial rally. The outlook will remain positive for the asset (gold) but more caution is needed. However, this upside could be limited as concerns about an escalation of the war in Gaza have faded that had fueled a rise in safe-haven appeal over the past month.

The CPI only increased again in August and September, while July still decreased by 0.3%. After this information, HSBC Bank released analysis that China's deflation has caused difficulties for exporters to this country in Southeast Asian countries, Korea, Taiwan and Germany. Experts say that deflation in China comes from excess capacity in manufacturing factories, which is pushing down global prices of manufactured goods. China's economic deflation puts strong pressure on regional and global economies.

Investors await a speech from US Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell for more clues about interest rates.
