World gold prices responded positively, increasing by 1% and maintaining the increase until the end of the week, closing near the highest level. At the end of the week, spot gold prices were at $3,370/ounce. Gold futures for September 2025 delivery on the Comex New York floor reached $3,376/ounce.

The market reacted positively to Chairman Jerome Powell's speech, which has important implications for gold, silver, platinum and palladium prices, according to Jeffrey Christian of CPM Group.

While gold and silver are still trading in tight ranges, Christian said the moves could signal the start of a new long-term uptrend for both precious metals, which CPM Group predicts will begin in the last four months of the year.

Investors are closely watching key US economic data due out this week, including new home sales, durable goods orders and consumer confidence, and preliminary second-quarter GDP.

Gold Price Forecast

Michael Brown, senior market analyst at Pepperstone, said that while Powell's comments could be a catalyst for a rally, the future direction remains open.

“Mr. Powell clearly supported the idea of ​​a rate cut in September, but attention will quickly turn to whether this will be a series of rate cuts, or just a single scenario,” Mr. Brown said.

Brown remains bullish on the precious metal in the long term, especially as President Trump once again escalates his attacks on the Fed, further eroding views of monetary policy independence and boosting the appeal of assets like gold.

A combination of macro factors, from the Fed’s dovish policy, political uncertainty, a weakening US dollar, to positive stock market developments, is creating an environment that is particularly favorable for the precious metal, with gold prices likely to hit all-time highs this year.

Although global gold prices are trading below the record $3,500 an ounce, it is only a matter of time, according to Nitesh Shah, Head of Macroeconomic and Commodity Research at WisdomTree.

Shah analyzed that the unpredictable fluctuations of the global financial market are increasing the possibility of gold prices continuing to rise. In an optimistic scenario, this expert predicts that the world gold price could reach the mark of 4,000 USD/ounce in the first quarter of 2026.

Two shocks at the weekend: Gold price skyrockets, will SJC reach 130 million VND? World gold prices reversed and increased sharply at the weekend after the Fed signaled a rate cut and Russia-Ukraine tensions escalated again. Domestically, SJC set a record of 126.6 million VND/tael.
