Hello everyone! Wrapping up this week's trading session, Gold reached the predicted level of $1980.
Regarding the analysis of this week's news:
In his speech, Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell stated that inflation in the US remains too high and economic growth is slower than necessary to reduce inflation. The comments from the Fed Chairman raised hopes in the market that the central bank may pause interest rate hikes. This suggests that there are significant risks to the prospects of the economy, thereby supporting the price of gold.
Regarding technical analysis:
The 4-hour chart shows that Gold is consolidating around the $1980 level, which was previously expected. This could be a Gold pullback, but the market seems to lean towards the selling side as the candle ends with a bearish tone. Therefore, according to Samson, in the coming week, Gold may retest the support level at $1970 or even lower at $1950 before continuing its upward trend towards the expected target of $2022.
