Gold Holds Firm at $2,900 with Potential for New Records
March 6, 2025 (Investorideas.com Newswire) Investorideas.com, rated as a top 100 investment website for investing ideas, issues market commentary from Antonio Di Giacomo, Financial Markets Analyst for LATAM at XS.
"Gold prices remain around $2,900 this Thursday, possibly reaching a new all-time high above $2,956. Uncertainty in global markets, driven by trade tensions and monetary policy decisions, has strengthened demand for this safe-haven asset. Despite the delay in tariffs on automobile imports from Canada and Mexico to the U.S., the reciprocal tariffs scheduled for April remain in place, raising market concerns and favoring gold purchases as a hedge against uncertainty.
The European Central Bank (ECB) decided to cut interest rates by 25 basis points, influencing market perception regarding global monetary policy. Meanwhile, in Europe, a key meeting is being prepared to discuss defense spending and aid to Ukraine-two topics could generate volatility in financial markets and impact the value of safe-haven assets.
In the U.S., bond market traders have adjusted their expectations regarding the Federal Reserve's monetary policy. Multiple interest rate cuts are expected in 2025, driven by deteriorating economic data in the country. These expectations have fueled recession fears, prompting more investors to seek refuge in gold, increasing its value and consolidating its upward trend in the market.
On the geopolitical front, Mali has decided to suspend the issuance of gold mining permits to foreign companies following a series of incidents in the sector. This measure aims to improve security in mining operations but could also raise concerns about future gold supply. Reduced production in a key gold-mining country could impact metal availability and increase prices in the international market.
Analysts highlight that gold continues to benefit from its status as a safe-haven asset in the context of rising economic and political uncertainty. The combination of factors such as the Federal Reserve's loose monetary policy, trade tensions, and geopolitical uncertainty reinforces gold demand, keeping its price at high levels with the potential for new all-time highs.
In conclusion, gold remains a key asset in investors' strategies amid economic and political uncertainty. With the Federal Reserve leaning toward lower interest rates, evolving European policies, and mining production restrictions, gold remains strong and could break new records in the short term."
