Gold market analysis: Bank of Japan interferes with the dollar falling and gold prices are calmly awaiting important events

Wang Gang of the Guangdong branch of the Bank of China said that although it was reported on Monday that the US dollar index fell slightly due to market intervention by the Bank of Japan, the impact on gold seemed limited. Gold market participants are basically focused on waiting for the Federal Reserve's interest rate meeting on Wednesday and the non-farm payrolls report on Friday, hoping to get a glimpse into the Fed's interest rate trend. Furthermore, the strength of the non-agricultural sector on Friday, especially wage growth, will be a key influencing factor disrupting the gold trend.

Gold market analysis: This week ushered in the Fed's decision and non-agricultural gold prices to remain stable

Wang Gang of the Guangdong branch of the Bank of China said that the US inflation data showed no signs of slowing down last Friday. Since the beginning of 2024, the PCE short-term trend favored by the Federal Reserve has been rising steadily. This triggered the market to confirm expectations that the Fed may postpone interest rate cuts until later this year, and it is expected that the Fed will show a hawkish trend at the May interest rate meeting. The Federal Reserve will announce its monetary policy decision on May 1. The market expects the Fed to keep the policy interest rate of 5.25% to 5.5% unchanged.

Gold market analysis: US data was mixed on Thursday, with a slight rise in gold prices and continued to stabilize

Wang Gang of the Guangdong branch of the Bank of China said that after the US released mixed economic data on Thursday, the general decline in the US dollar gave gold a certain boost and remained stable. Although gold rose on the same day, the increase was slight, indicating that investors are still afraid of the March PCE price index to be announced on Friday. It is expected that Friday's response to the strength or weakness of inflation data will cause large fluctuations in the gold market.
