World gold price today 8/26/2025

In response to the news that US President Donald Trump fired Fed Governor Lisa Cook over allegations of mortgage fraud, the world gold price this morning (August 26, Vietnam time) jumped to 3,380 USD at one point, then cooled down and fluctuated around 3,371 USD/ounce, the same price as last night.

At 8:00 p.m. (August 25, Vietnam time), the spot gold price was at $3,371/ounce. The gold futures price for September 2025 delivery on the Comex New York floor reached $3,368/ounce.

Gold prices started the new week in the US market with a slight decrease. Last Friday, the market reacted positively to the speech of the Chairman of the US Federal Reserve (Fed) Jerome Powell at the Jackson Hole conference. Mr. Powell signaled that the Fed could cut interest rates as early as the September meeting, helping the stock market recover and putting pressure on the USD.

But investors remain concerned about uncertainty. Inflation in the United States is running above its 2% target and the labor market is showing signs of weakness, leaving Fed policymakers divided on whether to cut interest rates.

The US Dollar Index (DXY), which measures the greenback's performance against six major currencies (EUR, JPY, GBP, CAD, SEK, CHF), recovered slightly after a sharp decline at the end of last week, standing at 97.89 points.

Crude oil prices edged up and are trading around $63.75 a barrel. The yield on the 10-year US Treasury note is currently at 4.337%.

In China, the People's Bank of China (PBOC) is trying to pump liquidity into the financial system to boost growth. According to Bloomberg , the PBOC injected a net 600 billion yuan through repurchase agreements this month, the highest since January.

Experts say this is a sign that China's monetary policy will continue to support growth. The liquidity injection not only helps stabilize the bond market but also encourages banks to lend more.

The PBOC also raised the yuan’s reference value to its highest level since November last year. The move came after the dollar weakened, indicating that China wants to stabilize the exchange rate to avoid external shocks.

The current rally is largely driven by money flowing from investors who have found no alternative investment channels, according to Bloomberg. Some analysts worry that this could be a sign of a "bubble" forming, called "irrational exuberance".

China's economy is still facing the risk of deflation and weak domestic demand, which could erode corporate strength and make this rally unsustainable.

Gold Price Forecast

According to experts, gold is still the leading safe haven in the current context. The prospect of the Fed soon reversing its policy will weaken the USD, creating momentum for gold prices. Moreover, increasing geopolitical uncertainties around the world also make investors seek gold as a safe place to protect assets.

Independent trader Tai Wong said that Mr. Jerome Powell's recent speech at the Jackson Hole conference was an important factor in helping gold prices increase.

He said the Fed Chairman had "paved the way" for a rate cut in September. This decision has provided support for many assets, including gold.

However, he also noted that the $3,400/ounce mark will be a major barrier that gold prices need to overcome in the coming time.

According to Ole Hansen, an expert at Saxo Bank, the gold market is about to enter a positive phase. After a quiet summer, gold prices will be supported by the Fed's policy.

Hansen predicts the Fed will cut interest rates soon, later this year. When interest rates fall, the dollar tends to weaken, which helps gold prices rise. Gold prices are likely to return to April's record high above $3,500 an ounce.
