Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD unlikely to budge during the upcoming week of central bank meetings – Commerzbank

Economists at Commerzbank discuss Gold outlook ahead of US Federal Reserve meeting next week.

Gold likely to be kept in check by US interest rate outlook

Participants in the Gold market will be focusing their attention primarily on the US Fed next week: if Fed Chair Jerome Powell were to leave the door wide open to further rate hikes at the press conference, this would probably keep the Gold price in check. 

We are still confident that interest rates have already peaked and that the market will correct its overly hawkish positioning in due course. Against this backdrop, we envisage higher Gold prices in the medium term.
