World gold price today June 26, 2025 and world gold price fluctuation chart in the past 24 hours

According to Kitco, the world gold price recorded at 4:30 a.m. on June 26, Vietnam time, was 3,327.03 USD/ounce. Today's gold price increased by 12 USD/ounce compared to yesterday. Converted according to the USD exchange rate at Vietcombank (26,307 VND/USD), the world gold price is about 109.68 million VND/tael (excluding taxes and fees). Thus, the price of SJC gold bars is 9.82 million VND/tael higher than the international gold price.

The world gold price tends to increase slightly. Although the tension between Israel and Iran has temporarily calmed down thanks to the ceasefire, the market still maintains a cautious mentality because this agreement is still fragile. The risk-on sentiment in the market is not strong, but not too weak, as the ceasefire between Iran and Israel seems to be maintained.

Specifically, spot gold prices increased 0.36%, after hitting a more than two-week low in the previous session. Gold futures on the US floor also increased 0.19%, to 3,312.42 USD.

Meanwhile, the US consumer confidence report for June showed a sharp decline. The Conference Board's consumer confidence index fell from 98.4 to 93.0, much lower than the expected 99.5. In particular, the future expectations index, a factor often used to measure the possibility of a recession, fell to 69. According to experts, a level below 80 often signals the risk of the US economy approaching a recession.

Despite the momentum and potential in the financial markets, gold has failed to break out to new highs, according to strategist Daniel Pavilonis of RJO Futures. He believes that if the situation in the Middle East continues to stabilize, gold prices could fall further, even to $2,900/ounce.

US President Donald Trump also expressed satisfaction with the quick end to tensions between Iran and Israel. He expressed hope to build a more positive relationship with Tehran, including preventing Iran from resuming its nuclear program.

The US stock market recorded a positive increase, with the S&P 500 and Nasdaq indexes both approaching new records, reflecting investor sentiment shifting to risk assets instead of seeking refuge like gold.

Investors are also closely watching the second day of testimony by Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell before Congress. In his previous testimony, Powell stressed that the Fed would only consider cutting interest rates after assessing the impact of tariffs, inflation and the weakening labor market.

The markets will be looking ahead to key data releases including the US GDP and jobs report on Thursday, as well as the personal consumption expenditure (PCE) index, the Fed's preferred inflation measure, on Friday. These data will be the basis for predicting the upcoming monetary policy. Currently, the market is betting on a more than 85% chance of the Fed cutting interest rates in September.

Prices of other precious metals also fell. Spot silver lost 0.3% to $35.79 an ounce; platinum fell 0.8% to $1,305.74; palladium fell the most, losing 1.8% to $1,046.73 an ounce.

Gold price forecast

The global financial market has seen a clear change after Israel and Iran reached a ceasefire agreement, ending 12 days of tense military confrontation. This is considered the main factor that cooled the defensive sentiment in the market, thereby negatively affecting the price of gold.

Expert Peter Grant from Zaner Metals commented that when tensions in the Middle East eased, the demand for holding gold decreased, instead money flowed to risky assets such as stocks or cryptocurrencies.

However, there are still many doubts surrounding the ability to maintain this ceasefire agreement, and in that context, the possibility of gold prices falling sharply further is not high. According to him, the current support level of gold prices is around 3,300 USD/ounce.

David Morrison, an expert at Trade Nation, also said it was notable that there was no wave of risk asset selling in the first session of the week. According to him, the market believes that the US will intervene militarily in a limited but effective way, enough to weaken Iran's nuclear ambitions without pushing the region into a new spiral of escalation.

In addition, the US-China trade tensions show no signs of being resolved. Chinese Premier Li Qiang urged world leaders not to over-politicize trade disputes, suggesting that while all attention is currently focused on the Middle East, other potential risks still linger in the global economy.

In that context, the world gold price is under strong pressure and is likely to break through the 3,300 USD/ounce mark at any time. News that Iran has no intention of retaliating against the US in the near future further increases investors' risk appetite, causing capital to flow strongly into stocks and cryptocurrencies.

Some investors believe that if the ceasefire continues without further fluctuations, gold prices will fall even further. Technical analysis shows that gold could fall to $3,250 or even $3,100 an ounce in the next few days. Previously, this precious metal had a 6-month winning streak with an increase of nearly 30%.

Investors are closely watching the moves from both sides. Israeli Prime Minister Netanyahu told President Trump that Israel could not cancel all attacks, but would significantly reduce the number of targets. Israel later confirmed that it had only struck one target in Iran and that the fighter jets were on their way back. Investors are waiting to see if Iran will actually stop its retaliation.

However, many market signals show that investors are expecting a more stable outlook in the Middle East, which continues to weaken gold's protective role in the short term.
