World gold price this afternoon January 23, 2025
At the end of the trading session on January 22, the world spot gold price increased by 11 USD to 2,756 USD. This is the highest price in the past 3 months, approaching the record of 2,790 USD set on October 31, 2024.
The market rose on a weaker dollar and uncertainty surrounding the policies of US President Donald Trump, with investors worried that his policies could spark a trade war and disrupt financial markets.
The Dollar Index, which measures the greenback against a basket of six major currencies, fell to its lowest in more than three weeks. A weaker dollar makes gold less expensive for buyers using other currencies.
Hopes for a more positive relationship between the US and China after the decision to delay the ban on TikTok in the US by 75 days… have been dashed. Investors fear a trade and technology war between the US and many of the world's major economies.
Previously, Mr. Trump signed decrees imposing a 25% tax on all products exported to the US market from Canada and Mexico.
Many people are worried that commodity prices will escalate under Mr. Trump's policies. Inflation will turn around and increase sharply, which is an ideal environment for gold to increase in price.
Gold prices are expected to fluctuate strongly in the coming days due to many surprises, from new policies, policy reversals, to battles in the US Senate and House of Representatives.
In addition, there are foreign policies and solutions of the Trump administration for hot areas in the world. Mr. Trump has just sent messages to convince Russian President Vladimir Putin to make a deal to end the conflict in Ukraine, but also signaled that he does not rule out the possibility of punishing Russia if Moscow refuses to sit at the negotiating table.
Mr. Trump also put pressure on Europe and neighboring countries with warnings of increased tariffs.
These are factors that could cause gold prices to fluctuate, possibly throughout the 47th president's four-year term.
