World gold price today July 19, 2025 and world gold price fluctuation chart in the past 24 hours

According to Kitco, the world gold price recorded at 3:30 p.m. on July 19, Vietnam time, was 3,350.97 USD/ounce. Today's gold price decreased by 14.33 USD/ounce compared to yesterday. Converted according to the USD exchange rate at Vietcombank (26,340 VND/USD), the world gold price is about 109.87 million VND/tael (excluding taxes and fees). Thus, the price of SJC gold bars is 11.13 million VND/tael higher than the international gold price.

Last week, the world gold price was almost flat, neither increasing nor decreasing sharply. Although the spot gold price decreased slightly by 0.09% compared to the previous week, it remained stable above the 3,300 USD/ounce mark, ending the week at around 3,350 USD/ounce.

One of the reasons why gold has not been able to increase in price is because the US dollar has shown signs of rising again, reaching a three-week high. The reason is that recent US economic data has been quite positive, and inflation remains high, making the US Federal Reserve (Fed) more cautious about cutting interest rates.

According to expert Aaron Hill, if the USD continues to strengthen, especially when Mr. Trump's trade policy makes the market more unstable, gold may face the risk of a strong correction, possibly even falling below the 3,000 USD/ounce mark.

However, there are still opinions that the possibility of a deep decline is not high in the short term, because gold is still showing its ability to withstand the context of rising bond yields and a strong USD.

Expert Christopher Vecchio commented that although gold has not yet increased in value compared to the USD, it is increasing in value when converted to other currencies such as the euro, British pound, Canadian dollar or Australian dollar. This shows that gold has not lost its value, but is only being affected by the strength of the USD alone.

Mr. Naeem Aslam believes that if the US economy does not decline sharply, the Fed will not rush to reduce interest rates, causing the USD to continue to increase. This is not beneficial for gold prices. However, expert Vecchio believes that gold prices will still maintain support around 3,200 USD/ounce, because fundamental factors such as central banks of countries continue to buy gold, and global geopolitical instability has not cooled down.

Another long-term factor that has been mentioned is that the confrontation between President Donald Trump and Fed Chairman Jerome Powell could increase market volatility. If confidence in US financial institutions declines, the role of the US dollar as an international reserve currency could also be affected, making gold and alternative assets like Bitcoin more attractive.

Investors will be closely watching the European Central Bank (ECB) monetary policy meeting next week. In addition, many important economic data from the US will be released, including the number of homes sold, the number of unemployment benefits, the manufacturing PMI index and durable goods orders. This information can create fluctuations in gold prices in the coming time.

Gold price forecast

According to the latest Kitco News survey on gold price trends, industry experts are still divided on the direction of the gold market. Meanwhile, individual investors are returning to optimism after a week of hesitation.

In this week’s survey, 15 Wall Street experts commented on the gold price trend. Of those, only one person held the view that gold prices will fall, while eight people (equivalent to 53%) said that prices will continue to rise next week. The remaining six experts (40%) predicted that gold prices will move sideways, with little change.

On the consumer side, Kitco’s online survey of 223 participants found that the majority of retail investors still believe that gold prices will continue to rise. Specifically, 138 people (62%) predict that gold prices will increase next week, while only 38 people (17%) think that gold will decrease. The remaining 21% believe that prices will continue to move sideways.

Darin Newsom at Barchart.com said he still sees gold prices rising. 'Nothing has changed. Uncertainty remains the main driver of the market, while the next Fed monetary policy meeting is approaching. Current forecasts suggest the Fed will keep rates unchanged at least until October.

However, experts at Commerzbank are more cautious, noting that the gold rally is showing signs of slowing down. Despite the significant weakening of the US dollar, gold has yet to break the $3,400/ounce mark. Meanwhile, other precious metals such as silver, platinum and palladium have risen sharply, suggesting that investors may be turning to alternatives.

Contrary to the reservations of some organizations, Mr. Rich Checkan, President of asset consulting firm Asset Strategies International, said that many current factors are supporting the upward trend of gold prices. According to him, the uncertainty surrounding the position of the Fed Chairman, the tension in the Middle East, Asia and Europe, and the weakening trend of the USD are factors that make gold more attractive.

James Stanley at Forex.com also said that gold has responded positively to technical support levels and there is no sign yet that sellers are in control of the market. He predicted that next week, the market will gradually form expectations for a possible interest rate cut in September, when the Fed meets.

According to Adrian Day, Chairman of Adrian Day Asset Management, gold prices are maintaining remarkable stability in the context of global political, policy and economic instability. This shows that gold is still a popular haven, and when economic conditions change in an unfavorable direction, the possibility of gold rising sharply again is entirely possible./.
