Report Summary 1. Investment Rating No investment rating for the industry is provided in the report. 2. Core View - Last week, the gold price showed an upward trend, with New York gold rising from $4,200 at the beginning of the week to $4,300 at the weekend. The core driving factor was the Fed's December FOMC meeting, which decided to cut interest rates by 25 basis points and restart the expansion of the balance - sheet, depressing the dollar and boosting gold. The Fed's stance was dovish, leading to a rise in risk appetite and liquidity, and a general increase in assets. However, on Friday night, the macro - environment suddenly changed, and overseas stocks and commodities fell, with the gold price also showing a trend of rising first and then falling, and short - term liquidity declined significantly [6][21]. - In the short term, the market first rose and then fell after the FOMC meeting, fully digesting the impact. The long - short game intensified, and the market's risk - aversion demand increased rapidly, resulting in an upward trend in the gold price. New York gold broke through $4,300, and its upward momentum was strong. Attention could be paid to the support at the $4,300 mark [6][21]. - In the medium - to - long term, the gold price has been in a high - level oscillation since Sino - US relations eased at the end of October. Attention should be paid to the Fed's interest - rate cut rhythm and global geopolitical changes, as well as the technical pressure at the $4,400 mark [6][21]. 3.

Dollar Weakens, Gold Price Strengthens The Fed's December FOMC meeting decided to cut interest rates by 25 basis points and restart the expansion of the balance - sheet. The Fed's stance was dovish, the dollar index was weak, and short - term market risk appetite and liquidity increased, leading to a general rise in assets. After the FOMC meeting, market risk appetite recovered, but on Friday night, the market atmosphere changed suddenly, and risk appetite declined again [12][14]. 3.4 3. Other Indicator Tracking - Since November, as the gold price has oscillated upwards, the holdings of international ETFs have also recovered, but the overall increase in holdings has been slow [16]. - After the Fed's FOMC meeting last week, liquidity and risk appetite recovered significantly. New York silver continued to reach new highs, rising to $65 at one point. Gold performed relatively weakly, and the gold - silver ratio continued to decline, approaching the 65 mark [19]. 3.5 4. Conclusion The conclusion is the same as the core view, emphasizing that the gold price showed an upward trend last week due to the Fed's FOMC meeting. In the short term, attention should be paid to the support at the $4,300 mark, and in the medium - to - long term, attention should be paid to the Fed's interest - rate cut rhythm, global geopolitical changes, and the technical pressure at the $4,400 mark [6][21].
