Core Viewpoint - The gold market is influenced by multiple factors, including Federal Reserve interest rate expectations, geopolitical tensions, and economic data performance [2][3]. Group 1: Gold Price Movements - Domestic gold price (99.95%) is quoted at 781.12 CNY per gram, up 0.71% [1]. - International gold price is reported at 3411.4 USD per ounce, down 0.21% [2]. Group 2: Influential Factors - Federal Reserve Rate Cut Expectations: The market anticipates a 25 basis point rate cut in September, with a nearly 100% probability according to CME FedWatch. However, internal disagreements within the Fed regarding inflation concerns add uncertainty [2]. - Geopolitical Situation: Accelerating peace talks between Russia and Ukraine may reduce gold's safe-haven demand if tensions ease, while increased geopolitical tensions could enhance gold's appeal [2]. - Economic Data Performance: Key economic indicators like U.S. non-farm payrolls and CPI are under scrutiny. Weak data could support the case for rate cuts, bolstering gold prices, while strong data may lead to volatility [2]. Group 3: Market Outlook - Short-term gold price movements will be primarily driven by Federal Reserve rate cut signals and changes in geopolitical tensions. Clear signals from the Fed or heightened geopolitical risks could lead to price increases, while the opposite may apply [3]. - In the long term, increased global economic uncertainty and the onset of a rate cut cycle could provide upward momentum for gold as a safe-haven and inflation hedge, though improvements in economic data or shifts in Fed policy could pose risks of price corrections [3].

Group 1: Market Outlook - The gold market outlook for the week of August 26 to August 30, 2025, will be influenced by complex and interrelated factors including geopolitical tensions, economic data, monetary policy, and market supply-demand dynamics [3] Group 2: Geopolitical Factors - The ongoing geopolitical tensions in the Middle East, particularly the humanitarian crisis in Gaza and the potential for conflict between Israel and Hezbollah, could significantly impact gold prices as increased risk aversion may drive investors towards gold as a safe-haven asset [4] Group 3: Monetary Policy Impact - Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell's recent comments suggest a potential for interest rate cuts in the coming months, which has led to increased market speculation regarding a nearly 100 basis point reduction by year-end [5] Group 4: Technical Analysis - Current gold prices are showing a bullish trend, with key moving averages indicating support for short-term bullish positions. A successful breakout above the resistance level of $3380 - $3400 per ounce could lead to further upward movement, targeting $3400 - $3450 per ounce [6] - Conversely, failure to break through resistance and a drop below the short-term support level of $3350 per ounce could result in a bearish trend, with potential support at $3320 per ounce [6]

Future Outlook - Short-term predictions indicate that gold prices may continue to face downward pressure, although the extent of the decline is expected to be limited [6]. - In the medium to long term, the overall trend for gold prices remains positive, supported by the global monetary system's shift towards lower interest rates, which may provide upward momentum for gold [6].
