World gold price this afternoon August 15, 2025 and world gold price fluctuation chart in the past 24 hours

According to Kitco, the world gold price recorded at 4:00 p.m. on August 15, Vietnam time, was 3,341.58 USD/ounce. This afternoon's gold price increased by 0.25 USD/ounce compared to yesterday. Converted according to the USD exchange rate at Vietcombank (26,440 VND/USD), the world gold price is about 106.67 million VND/tael (excluding taxes and fees). Thus, the price of SJC gold bars is 17.83 million VND/tael higher than the international gold price.

World gold prices increased slightly thanks to the depreciation of the USD, however, for the whole week, gold prices still decreased by 1.5% due to higher-than-expected US inflation data, causing the market to reduce expectations that the Federal Reserve (Fed) will cut interest rates by 0.5%.

Specifically, spot gold prices increased by 0.01%. Meanwhile, US gold futures for December delivery increased by 0.1% to 3,387.60 USD.

According to the latest data, the US producer price index (PPI) in July increased by 0.9% compared to June, much higher than the previous month's flat rate and far exceeding the forecast of only a 0.2% increase. This is the strongest increase since June 2022.

The data slightly reduced the likelihood of a 25 basis point rate cut in September, while all but eliminating the scenario of a 50 basis point cut that some investors had previously expected. This was the main reason for the sharp decline in gold prices, as gold tends to lose value when interest rates are high or rising.

In India, gold prices closed at 99,838 rupees (about $1,139.61) yesterday, after hitting a record high of 102,250 rupees last week. A Mumbai-based trader said many consumers were still waiting for prices to fall further, but as prices have been hovering around the 100,000 rupee mark for the past few months, some customers have started buying.

In China, gold trading is taking place at a discount of $7 to $6 per ounce compared to the world gold price. Bernard Sin, regional director of Greater China at MKS PAMP, said that physical gold demand in Asia is currently quite mixed. The jewelry industry is still facing difficulties due to high gold prices, while Chinese traders are also limiting purchases due to the lack of new import quotas.

In Hong Kong, gold was sold at par or a premium of up to $1.60 an ounce. In Singapore, the premium ranged from par to more than $2. Meanwhile, in Japan, gold was trading at a discount of $0.50 to the spot price, according to a Tokyo-based trader.

Besides gold prices, spot silver prices increased 0.1% to $38.02/ounce, platinum increased 0.5% to $1,363.90, while palladium decreased 0.2% to $1,143.25.

Gold Price Forecast

Gold prices are currently in a period of consolidation and sideways trading, but many experts remain optimistic about the long-term prospects of this precious metal. Mr. Tom Bruce, investment strategist at Tanglewood Total Wealth Management (USA), said the company has reduced the proportion of gold holdings from 12% to 10% to rebalance the portfolio.

Tanglewood increased its gold holdings in the first half of the year as prices rose nearly 30%. It now holds a maximum of 10%. “Gold prices may continue to move sideways for a while, but we remain bullish long-term,” Bruce said.

Gold prices could see a big move once the market becomes more aware of the U.S. debt problem, according to Ryan McIntyre of Sprott Inc. He pointed out that central banks have been buying gold aggressively since the Russia-Ukraine conflict broke out, creating a solid floor for prices and sending a positive signal to the market.

However, Mohammed Taha of MH Markets noted that inflationary pressures remain, leading many investors to expect interest rates to remain high. This could be a headwind for gold in the short term. However, if inflation persists and leads to a recession, gold will return to its safe-haven status.

Many analysts are predicting a stagflation scenario – a situation where prices rise while economic growth slows. In this case, the Fed may be forced to cut interest rates to stimulate the economy, pushing real interest rates down and creating favorable conditions for gold.

The market is expecting the Fed to cut interest rates by 0.5% in September. If this happens, gold could receive strong support, said Kyle Rodda from Capital.

Technically, the gold price trend remains positive. If gold breaks the key resistance level of $3,400 an ounce, the next rally could be driven by geopolitical factors rather than economic data, according to Fawad Razaqzada of City Index.

However, he also predicted that gold prices could experience a slight correction in the coming months, especially as the stock market is on a strong uptrend. However, in the long term, factors such as inflation, public debt and geopolitical instability will continue to support gold prices.
