Although gold has increased, the difference between buying and selling gold in the country is still very high. This can put buyers at risk of losing money when investing in the short term.

World gold price as of 9:13 am today, listed on Kitco at 1,969,173.2 USD/ounce. Compared to the opening of the previous trading session, world gold price decreased by 5.1 USD/ounce.

Although it has decreased quite sharply, demand for this commodity is increasing again and some forecasts say that gold is unlikely to decrease further because it is also considered a safe asset for investors seeking shelter from storms when geopolitical tensions increase.

Carlo Alberto De Casa, market analyst at Kinesis Money, said the gold market is waiting for more dovish signals from the US central bank before recovering. He added that gold prices are consolidating after slipping into overbought territory. Gold has risen more than 7% in October as conflict in the Middle East boosted demand for safe havens.

Investors are now awaiting a series of speeches from US Federal Reserve (FED) officials this week, the most important of which is a speech by FED Chairman Jerome Powell on Wednesday and Thursday.

Fed Chairman Jerome Powell is due to speak this week. Investors see a 90% chance the Fed will leave rates unchanged at its December meeting and a nearly 80% chance the Fed will cut as early as June, according to the CME FedWatch tool.
