What Will Drive 24K, 22K, 18K Gold Prices On Wednesday?

According to Trading Economics data, gold gold extended its momentum to surpass $2,840 per ounce on Tuesday, a fresh record high, as further concerns that tariffs from economic superpowers will hamper global growth extended demand for safe-haven assets. US President Trump delayed tariffs against Mexico and US but followed through with levies of 10% on all imports from China this week. Consequently, Beijing retaliated by announcing tariffs on US energy goods to start next week.

In the meantime, the Trading Economics report added, interest rate futures continued to indicate that the market expects two rate cuts by the Fed this year, compared to the loose consensus of no rate cuts in the period last month. This was backed by fewer job openings than expected in the latest JOLTS report, while factory orders slumped more than expected to a six-month low.

Also, Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst – Commodity and Currency, LKP Securities said, gold’s positive rally took a slight pause as MCX gold traded near Rs 83,000 with a minor Rs 200 dip. This weakness came as tariff discussions between the US, Canada, and Mexico gained traction. Going forward, gold is expected to trade in a range between Rs 82,000 and Rs 83,500.”
