Experts predict gold prices this week.

Gold prices receive positive forecasts.

After a week of rapid growth fueled by optimistic signals regarding interest rate expectations, the gold market is expected to experience unpredictable volatility this week as a series of central banks, most importantly the US Federal Reserve (FED), will hold meetings and announce their interest rate decisions.

Currently, the market is leaning towards the possibility that the Fed will cut interest rates by 25 basis points.

According to Heng Koon How, Head of Market Strategy, Global Market and Economic Research Unit, UOB Group, since consistently breaking above $2,000 per ounce at the end of 2023, gold has shown no signs of cooling down and is projected to continue rising in the near future.

Geopolitical instability is driving gold purchases as a "safe haven."

In addition, increased gold reserves purchased by central banks in emerging markets (EM) and Asia have also been a positive factor supporting gold prices. China, in particular, has attracted global attention with its significant allocation to gold.

According to an update from the World Gold Council (WGC), as of May 2024, China's official gold holdings had increased to approximately 2,300 tonnes, roughly 5% of its total reserves. This represents an increase of about 20% from the 1,900 tonnes held just two years earlier in 2022.
