Gold to Shine Bright on Fundamentals, Seasonality & Sentiments“Gold is money. Everything else is credit” said John Pierpont Morgan some 100+ years ago. Gold is limited in supply. Much of what can be mined has been dug up. Gold bugs opine that the only way for gold prices is up as fiat money continues to be printed with nothing but institutional promises backing them. As a result, not only is the price of gold inching up, but the value commanded by fiat money continues to contract. GOLD’S RISE HAS REMAINED UNSTOPPABLE DURING THE LAST TWO YEARS Gold, as represented by CME Gold Futures, was up 1.45x delivering a stunning 13.5% gain in 2023 followed by a record-shattering 27% gain in 2024. These stellar returns were delivered with a 20-day rolling realised volatility averaging south of 14% commanding a Sharpe Ratio of more than one. The World Gold Council analysis shows that gold outperformed US stocks, EM equities, bonds, and commodities. LBMA Gold prices surged by 25.5% while printing 40 all-time highs in 2024 with the most recent high of USD 2,777.80/oz on 30th October 2024. This remarkable growth was driven by strong demand from central banks and institutional investors combined with rising geopolitical risks. Source: gold.org After such a stunning rally these last two years, what to expect from gold in 2025? First, recapping the rationale for gold. GOLD REMAINS A HEDGE AGAINST SUSTAINED INFLATION, DEBASEMENT, & TRUST DEFICIT Gold has long been considered a safeguard against economic uncertainties, particularly during periods when confidence in financial institutions and government policies wanes. This perception is rooted in gold's intrinsic value and its independence from any single nation's economic policies, making it a preferred asset during times of trust deficit. Several factors have reinforced gold's role as a hedge against trust deficit, key among them being: • Geopolitical Tensions : Ongoing global conflicts and political instability have heightened investor anxiety, leading many to seek refuge in gold. Its value appreciates when geopolitical risks escalate, reflecting its status as a haven asset. • Fiscal Policies & Debt Levels : Concerns over rising national debts and fiscal deficits, particularly in major economies like the United States, have prompted investors to turn to gold. Analysts suggest that gold benefits from apprehensions about the trajectory of U.S. debt and deficits, serving as a buffer against potential fiscal crises. • Inflation & Currency Depreciation : Fears of inflation and currency devaluation have further increased gold's appeal. As a tangible asset, gold is perceived as a store of value that can preserve wealth against the eroding effects of inflation & currency debasement. Moreover, during periods of financial market volatility, gold has demonstrated its effectiveness as a portfolio diversifier. Its low correlation with other asset classes allows it to mitigate losses during market downturns, providing stability when trust diminishes. In summary, gold's enduring value and independence from centralized financial systems make it a reliable hedge against trust deficit. Investors seeking portfolio protection turn to gold as a haven. GOLD HAS HEADROOM TO RISE EVEN HIGHER IN 2025 State Street Global Advisors ("SSGA") cite three primary reasons for being bullish on Gold in 2025. These include (a) Continued central bank purchases, (b) Rising consumer demand in China & India as domestic gold ETFs proliferate, and (c) US monetary easing and the potential for the new Trump administration’s fiscal policies to expand deficits. Central banks have been accumulating gold at the fastest pace in recent record. Consistent buying in the past three years despite surging prices point to long-term strategic considerations beyond price sensitivity. Gold’s inverse relationship with the US dollar remains misunderstood. The USD is as strong today as it was at the start of the century, while gold has appreciated 813% in the same period. A strong dollar does not necessarily make gold bearish. New Trump Administration to be sworn-in later today (20th Jan 2025) also serves as a tailwind to gold prices. During Trump 2.0, the President's proposed tariff policies are likely to accelerate the de-dollarisation trend and be compounded by rising geopolitical risks. Collectively, this will push central banks and consumers to seek shelter in gold. Source: SSGA.com SSGA has a base case scenario (with a 50% likelihood) of gold trading between USD 2,600 to USD 2,900 an ounce. It also sets out a bull case with a 30% chance of gold price ranging between USD 2,900 to USD 3,100 an ounce. A bear case alternative (20% chance) of gold prices pulling back to trade between USD 2,200 to USD 2,600 per ounce. GOLD ETF FLOWS HAVE BEEN ROBUST IN 2025 The GLD ETF has seen substantial positive inflows into the fund so far this year. Barring four days of net outflows, large inflows on 10/Jan and 17/Jan have contributed to additional AUM of USD 579.22 million into the GLD ETF taking the total AUM to USD 76.74 billion. Post-election results, the GLD ETF witnessed multiple days of fund outflows and those have been more than offset with fresh funds moving into the ETF signalling bullish investor sentiment. SEASONALITY FAVORS A BULLISH STANCE IN GOLD Save for February & June, Gold Futures have generated positive returns during the first half of the year delivering 6.6% upside gains on average over the last ten years.

Gold Testing All Time High LevelsIt is no secret that the precious metals have been at the forefront of traders' minds over the past year with Gold and Silver showing significant gains near all time high levels. The Gold market today is up over $50 on the February contract and is now trading near the all time high levels achieved in October of 2024. Looking at the economic data, initial jobless claims came in better than expected while GDP came in worse than expected. Along with the economic data, the Fed met this week and kept rates unchanged, and the CME Fed Watch Tool is now pricing in the first rate cut of the year to come in June. This estimation can change over the course of the next few months based on many different indicators such as unemployment and inflation, but precious metals traders will be keeping an eye on guidance from the Fed to see if the current run in Gold and Silver will continue.

Gold Strength Continues Ahead Of Fed MeetingThe Gold market and the metals complex as a whole had a strong run in 2024 , and Gold has seen this strength continue over the last few weeks. Since the highs in October, Gold has seen some consolidation with prices falling due to many factors such as the changing Fed environment and the overall sentiment of the precious metals complex. Some of the metals are still lagging due to the fact that metals like Silver and Copper have a more industrial background to them and have other factors impacting price movements. The average true range of Gold currently sits near 35, which is not a record high for the contract but is offering a wide daily range for traders to position themselves in. The Gold market offers several different sizing options for many different types of traders, ranging from the newly released 1-oz contract to the full sized 100-oz contract. This wide variety of contracts helps give a larger range of traders the ability to trade depending on their own personal risk appetite or trading strategy. With the strong attention from traders on Gold along with the volatility traders have seen, it is critical for traders to understand what size contract will be most effective for their trading strategy.

Gold Futured trend line analysis Looking at the 15-minute chart, gold futures has been respecting the yellow downward trendline for some time before market close, while maintaining an overall bullish structure supported by the red upward trendline. The price is currently consolidating near the intersection of these trendlines, showing a potential breakout scenario. If the price breaks above the yellow downward trendline, it could signal bullish momentum, with the next resistance levels to watch being near 2,744.8 and 2,747.6 The stochastics oscillator is currently in the oversold zone, accompanied by increasing volume—both strong indicators suggesting a potential breakout above the yellow trendline. Volume will be critical in confirming the breakout, so keep an eye on increasing participation as the price approaches the yellow trendline.

GOLD (GC1!) ELLIOTT WAVE ANALYSIS - TRIANGLE PATTERN©Master of Elliott Wave: Hua (Shane) Cuong, CEWA-M (Master's Designation). The context suggests that we are inside the 4-grey wave, as the 3-grey wave ended at the high of 2,801.2. The 4H chart shows that we are inside the 4th wave in grey, based on some data on the current price action, it looks like a Sidewaves pattern and is narrowing over time. So it suggests to me the view of an unfolding Triangle. The ((d))-navy wave is probably close to completing its role by creating the resistance level ((b)),((d))-navy, but this view is not strong, so at the moment in gold, there are at least several different wave counts at work at the same time. Let's look at the alternative view of ALT, which also shows that the 4-grey wave is not showing any signs of ending, but instead developing as a Flat, its ((b))-navy wave will move higher.
