Gold weekly uptrend opportunity based On 1.00 Lot Calculation:

  • RUSSIA- UKRAINE WAR: President Vladimir Putin announced an attack on Ukraine on February 24, 2022, days after he recognized two breakaway regions of Russia’s neighbor as independent. Attacks are occurring in Kyiv, Odessa, Mariupol and other locations in Ukraine.
    RUSSIA TO FACE MORE SANCTIONS THAT COULD LEAD TO FURTHER ESCALATIONS: The EU is still considering sanctions against the Russian oil and natural gas, while Russia says the EU should pay in Russian Rubles if they do not want to stop receiving oil and gas from Russia. This could easily lead to economic recessions across the globe, pushing investor to look for protection with the safe- haven Gold.

  • US APRIL INFLATION CAME IN AT 8.3% (VS. 8.1% EXPECTED), BUT BELOW MARCH’S 8.5% (WHICH WAS THE HIGHEST SINCE 1982). Inflation has continued to rise. 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.

  • GOLBAL ECONOMIC RECESSION FEARS GROW AS RISING INTIEREST RATES DESTIMULATE ECONOMIC GROWTH. As interest rates started to rise across the globe, analysts believe that the global economy will slow down and it will eventually end up in a recession along with multi decade high inflation rates. Meanwhile, investors will be pushed towards the safe-haven Gold, looking for protection from market declines.

  • ANALYSTS OPINION (GOLDMAN SACHS/ WELLS FARGO/ CREDIT SUISSE/): GOLDMAN SACHS: We are raising our 6- 12 month gold target to $2500 from $2150 per ounce. Their 3-month target is 2300.
