Unlocking Gold's Next Move Factors at Play in the Market

Telah dikemas kini
gold price is gaining momentum in anticipation of a further increase, with the Bull Flag pattern still in effect, giving hope to buyers. The 14-day Relative Strength Index (RSI) is approaching overbought levels, indicating the potential for more upward movement.

The immediate resistance for the gold price is at $1,997, which corresponds to the five-month highs. Breaking above $2,000 on a weekly closing basis is crucial for further gains. The next significant resistance level is around $2,020, which represents the mid-May highs.

On the other hand, if the price is rejected near the multi-month high of $1,997, it could lead to a sharp correction towards the previous day's low at $1,972. If it continues to decline, the next support level to watch is at $1,963, followed by the psychological level of $1,950.

Gold is currently trading above $1,980 as it takes a pause after recent volatile trading. Factors influencing the market include the possibility of Japanese FX intervention, strong US Gross Domestic Product (GDP) data, ongoing Middle East concerns, and positive earnings from Amazon.com Inc. The focus is shifting to US inflation data.

The positive market sentiment is partially suppressing the US Dollar and US Treasury bond yields, allowing gold to maintain its positive momentum. Investor optimism is fueled by strong post-market earnings reports from US tech companies, including Amazon.com Inc.

Despite geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, including military strikes by the US and preparations for a ground invasion in Gaza, gold remains influenced by broader market sentiment, geopolitical developments, end-of-week flows, and bond market movements.

The US Congress has a new Speaker of the House, Mike Johnson, and concerns about a government shutdown persist. While the US Personal Consumption Expenditures - Price Index is on the horizon, it may receive limited attention as the recent US Q3 GDP report already included quarterly PCE inflation figures. The report showed a 4.9% annualized growth rate in the third quarter, surpassing the 4.2% estimate, largely driven by factors such as consumer spending, inventories, exports, residential investment, and government spending. This economic performance aligns with the Federal Reserve's outlook for higher interest rates in the future, even though it didn't significantly impact the US Dollar or Treasury bond yields. Gold initially corrected lower in response to the data but later found support to close slightly higher on Thursday.
