World gold price today May 18, 2025 and world gold price fluctuation chart in the past 24 hours
According to Kitco, the world gold price recorded at 4:30 am today, Vietnam time, was 3,202.77 USD/ounce. Today's gold price increased by 28.84 USD/ounce compared to yesterday. Converted according to the USD exchange rate at Vietcombank (26,110 VND/USD), the world gold price is about 101.88 million VND/tael (excluding taxes and fees). Thus, the price of SJC gold bars is 16.32 million VND/tael higher than the international gold price.
According to Kitco News, world gold prices suddenly increased sharply in the last minutes of the trading week after Moody's, one of the world's largest credit rating organizations, decided to downgrade the US credit rating.
Specifically, Moody's has downgraded the US national credit rating from Aaa to Aa1, citing rising interest costs and increasingly uncontrollable public debt. However, they still maintain a stable outlook instead of a negative rating as before.
In the announcement, Moody's emphasized that this downgrade reflects the fact that US government debt and interest coverage have increased sharply over the past decade, far exceeding countries with similar ratings.
Notably, the decision comes amid austerity measures being implemented by the US government under the supervision of Tesla CEO Elon Musk. Although Musk initially promised to cut spending by up to $2 trillion, in reality, the savings have not reached $100 billion.
Moody's also expressed pessimism about the US's ability to control spending in the future. They said that the US administration and Congress have repeatedly failed to come up with solutions to reduce the budget deficit and limit the burden of interest payments.
The market has not had much time to react to this information because the announcement time falls on the weekend. However, the price of gold has increased strongly, surpassing the threshold of 3,200 USD/ounce. Meanwhile, the yield of US bonds increased slightly and the stock index fluctuated with no clear trend, showing the cautious sentiment of investors.
Despite the recent decline in gold prices, many experts remain optimistic about the long-term prospects of the precious metal. Factors such as central bank demand, inflation and the possibility of future US interest rate cuts could continue to support gold prices.
Gold Price Forecast
According to some experts, gold prices are at risk of falling further next week as the market is in a wait-and-see mode for changes in global investor sentiment. Currently, the price of gold for June delivery is at $3,188.80/ounce, down more than 4.6% compared to last week.
Gold has lost nearly 9% since hitting a record $3,500 an ounce last month, the steepest sell-off since mid-June 2021, and even deeper than the November plunge after former President Donald Trump won the election.
Speaking to Kitco News, economics professor Thorsten Polleit (University of Bayreuth) predicted that gold could even test support below $3,000/ounce before the correction ends. However, he believes that lower prices will attract new money, as gold's long-term uptrend has not changed.
Ricardo Evangelista, senior analyst at ActivTrades, said gold prices could continue to fall as global investor sentiment improves, but he also said the decline would be limited.
According to him, recent weaker-than-expected US economic data has led the market to expect the Federal Reserve (Fed) to cut interest rates soon. This has caused the USD to depreciate and US bond yields to fall, factors that support gold prices to rise again.
Gold prices are currently being affected by many conflicting information streams, so they may still face difficulties in the coming time. However, Mr. Evangelista believes that gold is unlikely to fall further, because despite the market's optimism about trade negotiations and geopolitics, uncertainty remains the main factor influencing investors' decisions.
Meanwhile, Ole Hansen, head of commodity strategy at Saxo Bank, said he is taking a wait-and-see approach to gold, as the market is currently caught between two opposing forces. Despite the recent correction in gold prices, the fundamentals remain intact. Central banks continue to buy gold, geopolitical risks remain, sovereign debt is rising and the need for inflation protection remains.
