World gold price this afternoon August 20, 2025 and world gold price fluctuation chart in the past 24 hours
According to Kitco, the world gold price recorded at 5:00 p.m. on August 20, Vietnam time, was 3,325.68 USD/ounce. This afternoon's gold price decreased by 10.7 USD/ounce compared to yesterday. Converted according to the USD exchange rate at Vietcombank (26,520 VND/USD), the world gold price is about 106.36 million VND/tael (excluding taxes and fees). Thus, the price of SJC gold bars is 18.44 million VND/tael higher than the international gold price.
Gold prices fell slightly, near a three-week low, as investors awaited minutes from the US Federal Reserve's July meeting and the annual meeting of central banks in Jackson Hole, Wyoming later this week. These events are expected to provide clues on the path of interest rate cuts in the coming time, a factor that has a big impact on the gold market.
Specifically, spot gold price decreased by 0.32%, while gold futures price for December delivery on the US floor increased by 0.32% to 3,368.85 USD.
The US dollar rose to its highest in more than a week early in the session, making gold more expensive for investors using other currencies.
Spot gold is likely to continue to trade in a narrow range until the Fed officially begins its rate-cutting cycle, said Han Tan, chief market analyst at trading platform Nemo.Money. He also said the strengthening of the dollar this month is making it difficult for gold to rally significantly.
Minutes from the Fed’s July meeting, due later today, are expected to shed more light on the central bank’s outlook for the economy. Markets will be looking for clues about dissenting voices from the last Federal Open Market Committee (FOMC) meeting, Tan added.
He said gold could even edge higher ahead of Jackson Hole if the minutes show more dissent than expected. Fed Chairman Jerome Powell is scheduled to speak at Jackson Hole on Friday.
On the geopolitical front, US President Donald Trump on Tuesday ruled out sending troops to Ukraine but suggested that air support could be part of a deal to end the war there. Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy hailed the White House talks as a major step toward ending the conflict and set up a trilateral meeting with Russian President Vladimir Putin and Mr Trump.
Besides gold, spot silver fell 1% to $36.98 an ounce, platinum rose 0.4% to $1,311.05 an ounce, while palladium fell 0.8% to $1,105.98 an ounce.
