Market Summary
Ceasefire Impact on Weekly Performance
- The ceasefire announcement initially pushed prices to 3-week highs (~$4,888)
- Profit-taking set in due to uncertainty over the truce’s durability, but gold still posted its third consecutive weekly gain of approximately 2%
- Relief from lower oil prices (down 15%) has softened inflation fears, potentially opening the door for Fed rate cuts
Key Drivers of the Week
- Weaker US Dollar: A softening dollar made gold cheaper for international buyers
- Crude Oil Crash: A 15% drop in oil prices may ease inflation, potentially leading to more dovish central bank policies
- Conditional Truce: The ceasefire’s conditional nature keeps geopolitical risks alive
- Fed Rate Expectations: Easing inflation could lead to rate cuts, a positive for gold
Gold Technical Outlook
- Resistance Levels: $4,800, then $4,888 (weekly high), followed by $4,900 and $5,000
- Support Levels: $4,690 (20-day SMA), then $4,656 (100-day SMA), followed by $4,553 (April 2 low)
- Weekly Trend: Gold maintained its third consecutive weekly gain despite end-of-week profit-taking
Can Gold Prices Rise Further?
- Technical Levels: Support at $4,700 per ounce; resistance at $4,800
- Ceasefire Duration: The two-week window is temporary; any breakdown could trigger another safe-haven rally
- Fed Rate Expectations: Easing inflation from lower oil prices could lead to rate cuts, a positive for gold
- Central Bank Buying: Continued accumulation by global central banks provides long-term support
- Weekly Momentum: Third consecutive weekly gain indicates sustained bullish sentiment
Key Considerations for Buyers
- GST: 3% applicable on gold value
- Making Charges: Typically range from 5% to 35% for jewellery
- Investment Options: Gold ETFs or Sovereign Gold Bonds (SGB) help avoid high making charges of physical jewellery
