💸Gold on Fire: Hitting ₹74,000 and Why It's Rising!???💸 Gold prices have been on a tear lately, reaching a scorching ₹74,000 and delivering a sizzling 13% return - that's a jump from the previous 9%! But what's behind this hot streak? Let's break it down!!! 1. China's Wobbles Spark Safe Haven Rush Imagine this: China's stock market is taking a tumble, and their currency is weakening. Yikes! Investors spooked by this get nervous and seek shelter in safe havens like gold. Gold's reputation as a reliable store of value makes it shine during shaky times. 2. US Interest Rate Cuts? Gold Gets More Attractive The buzz is that the US Federal Reserve might lower interest rates. This can make gold more appealing compared to other investments like bonds that typically pay interest. Why? Because when interest rates are low, the potential returns from those bonds become less exciting, making gold's zero-interest offering seem less like a sacrifice. So, is this the new normal? What do you think? Will gold prices continue to climb? Share your thoughts in the comments! #Gold #Investment #MarketTrends

Gold finally broke to record highs early in Asian trading today amidst very thin liquidity. Interestingly, in the European morning the metal is now marginally back below the previous all time high of 2080. The daily closes today and the next two days will be important to determine whether today's move was merely a short-covering rally, or something more sustainable, IMO. The weekly close on Friday will also be instructive. The fundamental backdrop for gold and commodities broadly looks positive given the trends of lower bond yields and a lower dollar. However, there seems to an near universal consensus that gold will move higher. I have not encountered ANY high profile market participants who are not bullish. This doesn't mean that gold cannot rally further from here in the short term, but it is something to keep in mind. To the extent that gold can remain above 2000, then I think that the upside potential remains in the short term. Were it to close back under the recent swing low of 1930, that would suggest to me that the move above 2070 was a 'false break.' My bias is to the upside, but the popularity of the long gold trade tempers my enthusiasm a bit in the short term. The herd can be right for a period of time - but not indefinitely. On a longer term basis, I remain bullish on gold and continue to think that it deserves a place in a long term portfolio. That does not rule out a period of consolidation though, should today's breakout to the upside prove unsustainable in the short term.

Gold prices fell in Asian trade on Friday, retreating further from record highs hit this week as a sharp uptick in the dollar, following a surprise interest rate cut by the Swiss National Bank, pressured metal markets. After reaching the 2222.0 high, the Gold market is triggering a downside and opens up potential selloffs to 2161.0. A close under the 2161.0 shall washout declines to 2130.0 and possibly lower as a minor correction, then we will leave supply and demand decide the Gold's next move. The market shall finalize its correction before moving down or up again.

One can do a lot worse than investing like the Chinese. Although FX Reserve management is a completely different game altogether compared to building up their oil and copper reserves, they've had a great record in timing their purchases. China's Gold FX reserves have more than doubled to over 4% today. Since 2018 till today, Gold returned around 78%. The S&P500 in comparison returned around 98%. On a risk-adjusted basis Gold was the better option and has more than compensated for mere inflation. If Investors start to believe in holding Gold within 2-3% of their portfolio, it will have a profound impact on Gold prices, ultimately supporting savers and will extend gold returns over the long run. *Historical results aren't indicative of future returns. #gold #fxreserves Source: Refinitiv

Gold has posted a substantial correction over the past forty eight hours and, after trading above $2,400/oz late last week, is now around $2300/oz. There appears to be two reasons for the correction: Firstly, geopolitical calming - markets and media have interpreted Israel's limited strike back against Iran as an attempt to defuse tension. Secondly, there is increasing evidence that the move from about $2,200-$2,400/oz was driven by short term speculation on the Shanghai Futures Exchange, and perhaps to a lesser degree, in the T+D contract of the Shanghai Gold Exchange. Short-term traders in leveraged futures markets, as we have seen many times over the years, can move the price quickly higher or lower and it seems that profit taking may have been at the heart of yesterday’s move lower. If we are right about short-term speculation in Chinese Gold Exchanges being responsible for much of the past few weeks moves in gold, it is further evidence that Emerging Market participants have wrested the drivers of gold from western traders. This makes the recent divergence of gold from its historical anchors of the US dollar and Fed funds expectations more understandable and may mean gold market observers will have to pay attention to additional factors to divine gold’s prospects.
