Gold markets showed little reaction to the latest inflation data. Prices rebounded sharply after a sell-off on Wednesday (July 30) after comments from Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell cast some doubt on market expectations for a September interest rate cut.

Inflation data does not provide much guidance for U.S. monetary policy, some economists say. While inflation remains above the Fed's 2% target, it is not far above expectations.

Asian central banks have stepped up efforts to intervene in the currency market to stabilize their currencies.

The People's Bank of China set a stronger-than-expected peg to support the yuan.

Gold Price Forecast

According to experts, in the context of geopolitical tensions, conflicts or economic crises, gold is considered the top safe-haven asset. This demand for shelter can overwhelm the impact of interest rates.

When interest rates are low, the risk of inflation can increase. Gold is considered a hedge against inflation, helping to preserve the value of assets when the purchasing power of a currency decreases. Therefore, in an environment of high inflation or rising inflation expectations, demand for gold often increases, pushing the price of gold higher.

Tim Waterer, chief market analyst at financial services firm KCM Trade, said gold prices below $3,300 an ounce have created a lot of attraction, encouraging traders to buy. This is especially true in the current economic context with many uncertainties, along with threats of additional tariffs from the administration of US President Donald Trump.

Waterer said that a key support level is forming around $3,250 an ounce, which could prevent further declines in gold prices. However, he warned that if this level is broken, gold prices could fall to $3,200 an ounce.
