World gold price this afternoon August 3, 2025 and world gold price fluctuation chart in the past 24 hours

According to Kitco, the world gold price recorded at 3:30 p.m. on August 3, Vietnam time, was 3,362.53 USD/ounce. This afternoon's gold price increased by 24.17 USD/ounce compared to last week. Converted according to the USD exchange rate at Vietcombank (26,390 VND/USD), the world gold price is about 110.43 million VND/tael (excluding taxes and fees). Thus, the price of SJC gold bars is 13.07 million VND/tael higher than the international gold price.

World gold prices had an impressive recovery at the end of the week, erasing losses from earlier in the week and approaching the important resistance level of 3,400 USD/ounce. The main reason came from the weaker-than-expected US employment report, raising hopes that the Fed will cut interest rates in September.

Spot gold is currently trading at around $3,360.25 an ounce, up 0.72% from the start of the week and up nearly 3% from Wednesday’s low. Lukman Otunuga, senior market strategist at FXTM, said the rally in gold prices this weekend was notable, largely due to the sharp weakness in the US dollar.

Aaron Hill, an analyst at FP Markets, said the weak report undermined confidence in the US economy, putting pressure on the dollar. Meanwhile, gold shined as a hedge against economic uncertainty.

According to CME's FedWatch tool, the market now predicts a 92% chance that the Fed will cut interest rates in September, up sharply from the previous 38%. This is the main driving force for gold prices to increase sharply over the weekend.

Since the beginning of the year, domestic gold prices have recorded impressive growth. Gold bar prices at major companies such as DOJI and Bao Tin Minh Chau have increased by about VND39.3 million/tael in both buying and selling directions.

For gold rings, the increase was also significant. At DOJI, the buying price increased by 33.7 million VND/tael and the selling price increased by 35.3 million VND/tael. At Bao Tin Minh Chau, the figures were 34.6 million VND and 36 million VND/tael, respectively.

Investors who bought gold at the beginning of this year have made a significant profit. If investing in SJC gold bars, each tael bought at the beginning of the year at VND84.2 million can now be sold at VND121.5 million, earning a profit of VND37.3 million.

With gold rings, the profit is also very attractive. At DOJI, each tael of gold rings brings in a profit of 32.8 million VND. At Bao Tin Minh Chau, this figure is even higher at 33 million VND/tael when the purchase price is currently 117.2 million VND compared to 84.2 million VND at the beginning of the year.

However, experts warn investors to be aware of important risks. The gap between buying and selling prices is currently quite large, from 2 to more than 3 million VND/tael, which can put investors at risk if the market fluctuates.

Gold Price Forecast

According to the latest report from the World Gold Council (WGC), inflows into gold ETFs and demand for physical gold reached their highest levels in the first half of the year since 2013.

Geopolitical tensions, unpredictable US trade policy and rising gold prices have led many investors to seek gold as a safe haven. Central banks have also continued to increase gold purchases to add to their reserves.

Expert Tai Wong commented that although the stronger USD caused pressure, gold prices still maintained their floor and were ready to increase if there was a deep adjustment thanks to long-term supporting factors such as geopolitical instability, US public debt and the trend of decreasing dependence on the USD.

Kelvin Wong of OANDA said that with gold prices surpassing $3,350 an ounce at the end of the week, the metal could receive further upside momentum in the short term. This scenario is noteworthy as the market awaits important data on inflation and the US labor market, which are key factors in the direction of gold prices in the coming time.

Technically, the bulls are in control with the $3,400 target just under 2%. A hold above $3,330 could open the way for a move to $3,400, while a drop below that level could drag the price to $3,300, a key support zone.

Naeem Aslam of Zaye Capital Markets predicts that gold prices could steadily advance to $3,400 on expectations of a change in monetary policy. If the Fed signals easing, speculative money could push prices above this psychological level, especially as investors continue to seek safe-haven assets. Technical indicators such as ETF inflows and increased buying interest reinforce this outlook.

Michael Brown of Pepperstone is bullish on gold’s role as a global currency amid trade uncertainty. He expects the trend of diversifying reserves away from the US dollar into gold, especially from emerging markets, to continue, along with safe-haven demand amid concerns about the US economy. The $3,400, $3,445 and $3,500 levels are key points to watch, with gold likely to make new highs before the end of the year.

With little major economic data coming in the week ahead, markets will continue to digest Friday’s weak jobs report. Meanwhile, experts expect uncertainty from President Trump’s trade war to continue to boost demand for gold as a safe-haven asset.
