GOLD weekly uptrend opportunity based On 1.00 Lot Calculation:
- RECENT PRICE ACTION: Gold has lost around 5.00% over the past two weeks to test its lowest rate in three weeks ($1778.24). The daily Relative Strength Index fell close to its oversold threshold of 30, signaling that the downside is limited.
- EVENT: INFLATION (CPI) FOR OCTOBER (6.2% vs. 5.8% exp.). Inflation rose to the highest since 1990. Inflation has continued to rise, moved up by high stimulus packages provided by the US Federal Reserve and the US Congress. A rising inflation usually increases demand for gold as the asset is traditionally considered a store of value, which tends to protect the purchasing power of people’s wealth amid higher inflation. November Inflation data will be released on December 10 at 13:30 GMT.
- EVENT: US GOVERNMENT STIMULUS: The US Congress passed the infrastructure bill worth around 1 trillion dollars. Another one, worth 1.75 trillion dollars, is expected to be passed later this month. This high spending could keep inflation persistently high. This may support the Gold prices.
- ANALYSTS OPINION (GOLDMAN SACHS/CITIGROUP/WELLS FARGO/COMMERZBANK/CREDIT SUISSE/ BANK OF AMERICA): GOLDMAN SACHS said that Gold is well placed for a boom, targeting still $2000. CITIGROUP sees Gold at $1950. Wells Fargo (The third largest bank in the US by assets) sees Gold at $2100-$2200 in 2021. Commerzbank expected gold prices to return to $2000 by the end of the year. CREDIT SUISSE targets the area 1959-1966, potentially could extend to $2075. BANK OF AMERICA expects the Gold price to reach $1900 in the Q4 2021.
