Fundamental Analysis

* Inflation vs. Safe-Haven Demand: Gold prices held near record highs as traders weighed strong U.S. inflation data against rising safe-haven demand driven by global trade uncertainty.

Fed Rate Cut Expectations: A hotter-than-expected U.S. CPI report led traders to scale back expectations for Fed rate cuts, pricing in only one cut instead of two.

Trade Tensions: President Trump’s aggressive tariff plans have reignited concerns over global trade, boosting demand for gold as a hedge against uncertainty.

Technical Analysis

* Technical Breakout: Gold continues to trade higher after rebounding from support, with the MACD indicating strengthening bullish momentum. The RSI at 56 suggests potential for further gains, with price eyeing resistance at 2935.00.

* Resistance and Support: If the bullish momentum persists, there’s a strong likelihood that the price will potentially head towards the level 2935.00. Conversely, a potential reversal is also to be expected and the price could head back towards 2875.00

Potential Risks

Looking ahead, U.S.-led ceasefire talks between Russia and Ukraine could affect safe-haven demand, leading to increased volatility in gold prices.
