Abstract:From the start of the week, gold price is little changed compared with last week as it has quickly rallied from the fresh monthly low of $1,907.
WikiFX News (12 Sept) - From the start of the week, gold price is little changed compared with last week as it has quickly rallied from the fresh monthly low of $1,907; while current market trends may keep gold afloat as the crowding behavior in the US dollar persists in September.
Gold price may continue to consolidate as global stock markets are under pressure with the Nasdaq and S&P 500 sitting at a precarious position. However, the crowding behavior in the greenback may continue to coincide with the bullish behavior in gold as a bear-flag formation emerges in the DXY.
The FED seems to persist with the plan of “achieving an inflation that averages 2% over time”, which may not be changed before the US election. Gold price is expected to be lifted once the Chairman Powell raises the FEDs balance sheet back above $7 trillion.
According to the IG Client Sentiment report, retail investors all hold net-long USD/CHF, USD/CAD and USD/JPY while remaining net-short AUD/USD, GBP/USD, EUR/USD and NZD/USD.
Gold price may continue to consolidate before a successful attempt of closing below $1,907-1,920. Only when a break/close above $2,016-2,025 appears can the record high price ($2075) finds its way. The next area of focus comes around $2,064 followed by $2,092.

China’s Supreme People’s Court disclosed a major cross-border investment scam in which fraudsters used fake gold trading and fabricated profits to deceive victims, resulting in losses exceeding 280 million yuan. The case highlights the growing sophistication of online investment fraud and reinforces the need for investor vigilance and proper due diligence.

For the past few years, gold has been riding a seemingly never-ending trend, and recently silver has decided to join the race, and both of these assets made headlines across the world because of how well they were performing.

Malaysia’s retail gold prices have hit record highs, with 999 fine gold reaching RM700 per gram and 916 gold rising to RM650, driven by surging global gold prices, geopolitical tensions, and growing expectations of further US interest rate cuts.
