Gold bouncing in the middle of the siege

Dear readers, are you curious about the gold market today? In the early morning, gold had a tendency to increase by 0.7 USD compared to the closing price of last week's trading session and reached a level of 1916.5 USD/ounce.

"Gold is surprisingly strong even when the US dollar is strong this week and the culprit is the weakness of the euro (57.6% in DXY). The strength of the US dollar is truly remarkable due to its reaction to support tests, but gold continues to rise even in that context."

The latest weekly survey results from Kitco News show that most retail investors expect gold prices to rise by the end of September 1st. Meanwhile, market analysts remain cautious as they enter into the final week of August.
