Observations at many gold shops in Hanoi show that the demand for gold among the public remains undiminished. However, most shops have announced that they are out of SJC gold bars and are only selling gold rings, causing difficulties for buyers.

Mr. Do Huy Anh (Hai Ba Trung ward, Hanoi) said that in recent days, every store he visited was informed that they were out of stock or had limited quantities available. He wanted to buy gold bars or gold rings for investment purposes, but it was very difficult to do so. The price of gold is constantly rising, so he has to buy now, fearing that if he waits longer, the price will go even higher.

Mr. Huy Anh added that the store he visited had no limit on the quantity of plain gold rings he could buy, but they did not have gold bars. Customers buying less than 5 taels of gold rings could receive their order immediately. However, those buying more than 5 taels had to wait about 5 days. As for gold bars, the store announced that they were out of stock and did not know when they would have them again.

World gold prices also continued to rise sharply, trading at $4237.79 per ounce, marking the fourth consecutive month of increases. The continued rise in world gold prices is driven by increased demand for this precious metal as a safe haven.

A critical incident at CME Group's data center halted futures and options trading. This caused hours of disruption across stock, forex, bond, and commodity markets. The incident sparked concerns about the risk of systemic disruption in global financial markets. It also triggered demand for safe-haven assets, including gold, which helped drive gold prices sharply higher in the short term.

Expectations of a Fed interest rate cut remained the main driver of the gold market at the end of the week. This factor caused gold prices to surge, reaching their highest level in two weeks and heading towards a fourth consecutive month of gains. A Fed interest rate cut would weaken the US dollar, leading investors to increase their gold purchases to preserve their assets. This shift provided significant support for gold prices today.

Related markets recorded the USD-Index at 99.46 points; the yield on 10-year US Treasury bonds is currently at 4.019%; and the US stock market rose for the fifth consecutive session. Meanwhile, world oil prices fell slightly, trading around $62.38 per barrel for Brent crude and $58.55 per barrel for WTI crude.

Gold price forecast

Investors are focusing all their attention on the Fed's upcoming decision. According to experts, expectations are high that the US economy will slow down in 2026, and there's a strong possibility the Fed will cut interest rates. This shift in monetary policy is a key factor attracting investors back to gold.

For individual investors, Kitco's online poll attracted 260 votes. Optimism among retail investors also increased after gold prices broke through the $4,000 support level.

The remaining 48 investors (19%) believe gold prices will consolidate next week.

According to a new report from Swiss bank UBS, demand for gold is expected to increase sharply in the coming months. The precious metal will be driven by a number of factors: interest rate cuts, falling bond yields, public finance challenges, and domestic political instability in the US.

On November 20th, UBS raised its mid-2026 gold price target to $4,500 per ounce, up from its previous target of $4,200 per ounce. The bank also increased its upper limit by $200 to $4,900 per ounce, in anticipation of potential spikes in political and financial risks. However, they maintained their lower limit at $3,700 per ounce.

UBS analysts believe that the worsening outlook for U.S. public finances could incentivize central banks and investors to buy gold. They also expect demand for gold-backed exchange-traded funds (ETFs) to remain strong in 2026.
