Fundamental analysis
XAUUSD quotes have completed a downward correction and reversed upwards in line with the trend, receiving active support from buyers at around 2,600 USD. Gold is in demand from global central banks and investors, with escalating geopolitical tensions in the Middle East adding to its appeal.
Last week’s US inflation data, particularly the Consumer Price Index (CPI) and the Producer Price Index (PPI), roughly aligned with forecasts. The stock market responded to the released statistics with a rise, and gold also strengthened against the US dollar.
XAUUSD technical analysis
Gold has completed its decline as part of a downward correction. Last week, a bullish, engulfing candlestick reversal pattern formed on the daily chart, indicating the completion of the downward movement and an upward reversal. Following the pattern formed, the quotes showed a steady upward movement.
The short-term XAUUSD price forecast suggests that another decline to 2,600 USD could follow if bears push the quotes below the 2,630-2,625 USD support area. If bulls hold the price above 2,630-2,625 USD, further growth to an all-time high of 2,685 USD is likely. The growth scenario currently seems the most probable.
Summary
Gold prices have completed a downward correction and confidently reversed upwards. The price could reach an all-time high of 2,685 USD in the short term.
