Why is the price of gold rising continuously?
According to economic experts, the main driving force behind the strong increase in gold prices comes from a combination of economic and policy factors. Firstly, the unstable international context is increasing the demand for holding safe-haven assets. New developments related to the relationship between the US and Venezuela have made the energy and financial markets more cautious, thereby supporting gold prices.
Additionally, US economic data is sending mixed signals. While Q3 GDP growth was stronger than expected, manufacturing activity shows signs of slowing as durable goods orders declined sharply. This makes the outlook for monetary policy more uncertain, reinforcing gold’s role in long-term investment portfolios.
Furthermore, pressure from budget deficits and medium-term inflation expectations continue to be fundamental factors supporting precious metal prices. Analysts believe that the large amount of money pumped into the economy in recent years has not yet fully reflected in consumer prices, but the potential for spread in the future remains.
At the same time, a weakening US dollar and US Treasury yields maintaining around 4.1% also create favorable conditions for gold as the cost of holding this non-interest-bearing asset decreases.
According to assessments by many international organizations, the upward trend in gold prices shows no signs of reversing. Technical analysis indicates that this precious metal remains in an uptrend, with the next target level mentioned around $4,600 per ounce.
Domestically, gold prices are expected to continue fluctuating according to international developments and market sentiment. However, experts advise investors to consider carefully, avoid the psychology of buying at high prices, and closely monitor macroeconomic factors that may impact trends in the future.
In a global economic context full of uncertainties, gold continues to assert its role as a value-holding channel chosen by many investors.
