World gold price this afternoon March 30, 2025

As of 3:30 p.m. this afternoon, March 30, the world gold price was listed at 3,083.39 USD/ounce, stable compared to yesterday and up 59.13 USD/ounce compared to the close of last week's trading session.

The price of gold has skyrocketed to an all-time high as investors have poured money into the metal to seek safety from economic and political uncertainties. The price increase was mainly driven by US President Donald Trump's latest announcement to impose a 25% tax on imported cars and auto parts.

Immediately, major economies such as Europe, Japan, Canada and China reacted strongly and threatened to take retaliatory measures. This significantly increased the risk of a new trade war, making investors nervous and pushing gold prices to continue to rise towards new records.

In addition to trade tensions, political instability in the Middle East has also contributed significantly to the increase in gold prices. The US has just increased its military activities there and is preparing for military action against the Houthi forces in Yemen. These moves have raised concerns about the risk of escalating conflicts, which could affect oil supplies and cause widespread instability. Gold prices are further supported to go further.

Analysts say that Mr. Trump’s tariff policy is not simply aimed at the auto industry, but may expand to many other products, affecting consumers around the world. Experts from Bank of America also predict that if trade tensions escalate, major central banks will continue to diversify their foreign exchange reserves, reducing their dependence on the USD.

The slight weakening of the US dollar, combined with the boost in demand for gold from many major central banks in countries such as China, Russia, Brazil and India. In addition, gold exchange-traded funds (ETFs) are also continuing to record steady inflows, creating solid support for gold prices.

Another important factor that positively affects gold prices is the continued increase in inflationary pressure in the US. The recently released core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) Index increased more than expected, indicating that commodity prices are continuing to rise. This has made many investors worry that inflation will reduce the purchasing power of Americans, thereby making them increasingly seek protection of their assets through gold.

US consumers are now having to cut back on spending and increase savings due to sharp price increases. Personal incomes have increased faster than expected, but personal spending has increased more slowly. This situation has many experts worried that the US economy is facing the risk of high inflation but weak growth, making it difficult for the FED to decide to adjust interest rates.

Federated Hermes’ Damian McIntyre warned that rising inflation data will add pressure on the Fed, especially with new tariffs set to take effect next week. He also said that while the Fed is neutral, inflationary pressures and trade tensions will force it to think carefully about the path of rate cuts.

At the end of the last trading week, the spot gold price listed on Kitco reached a very high level of 3083.39 USD/ounce, showing that investors are still buying gold aggressively to prevent greater risks in the coming time.

Gold Price Forecast

Given the current situation, gold prices are expected to remain high in the short term. If trade and political tensions persist, gold prices could rise to around $3,100-$3,200 an ounce by mid-April.

However, the market will also face the risk of strong fluctuations, especially if the US Federal Reserve (Fed) unexpectedly raises interest rates to curb inflation, or if tensions in the Middle East and Ukraine are eased. At that time, the price of gold could fall rapidly to the threshold of 2,950-3,000 USD/ounce.

In the long term, Goldman Sachs predicts that gold prices will reach around $3,300/ounce by the end of 2025. The main factors driving this increase are stable gold demand from central banks and capital flows from gold ETFs.

In the same vein, last week, a team of analysts from Bank of America raised their gold price forecast for the next two years, predicting that prices could reach $3,500 an ounce by 2027. However, given the current strong growth in gold prices, this number may still be quite conservative.

French bank Société Générale also made an optimistic prediction, saying that gold could reach $3,300/ounce in 2025. The bank even emphasized that if the international political situation becomes more serious, the gold price is entirely capable of reaching a record $4,000/ounce.

However, David Morrison of Trade Nation warned that gold prices are overbought and advised investors to be cautious. He said that although investors are still eager to buy after each small correction, this also increases the risk of a sharp decline in the near future.

Experts from Kitco believe that gold prices will continue to increase in the short term, even in April. The important levels that investors need to watch in the near future are $3,042, $3,050, and especially the important resistance level at $3,100 per ounce. Many analysts consider the $3,100 mark to be the point that could mark a temporary peak in the gold market.

Ilya Spivak, global macro director at Tastylive, also noted that investors should pay particular attention to the key price level of $3,057, followed by $3,100/ounce. These are key levels that will determine the trend of gold in the coming period.

However, some analysts are also noting the possibility of a short-term correction. James Stanley, senior strategist at Forex.com, said that $3,100 is an important level to watch, as it could be a key technical resistance level that could trigger a slight correction.
