Global gold prices fell slightly in the last trading session of the week, mainly due to investors deciding to sell after a sudden increase, reaching a high of 2,470 USD/ounce.
Despite the downside correction, gold still recorded a weekly gain of 1.9%, thanks to increased demand for safe-haven investments amid geopolitical tensions in the Middle East and expectations of a Fed rate cut in September.
The latest data shows the US labor market has slowed significantly, with the unemployment rate rising to its highest level since October 2021.
The US Department of Labor's nonfarm payrolls report showed that only 114,000 jobs were created in July, down from 179,000 in June and below economists' forecast of 185,000.
In the context of poor employment, analysts predict that the Fed will likely cut interest rates by 0.5% at the upcoming meeting, instead of the previous 0.25% reduction.
Jim Wyckoff, senior analyst at Kitco Metals, said the market is pricing in a more than 70% chance that the Fed will cut interest rates by 0.5% in September.
State Street predicts that, in the context of falling interest rates and geopolitical tensions, gold prices could fluctuate between $2,200-2,500/ounce for the remaining months of the year, unless there are major economic or political changes.
George Milling-Stanley, an expert at State Street, commented that the current economic and political situation is supporting gold prices, and prices could reach $2,500-2,700/ounce if the USD continues to weaken due to the Fed's interest rate policy.
