Why is the Gold price moving today?
Gold prices are trending higher on the back of increased safe-haven demand amid rising political tensions involving the US and Venezuela. The yellow metal gained over 1% on Monday following the capture of Venezuela’s President Nicolás Maduro by the Trump administration over the weekend. Adding to the rally were comments by US President Donald Trump, who said he sought to take control of Venezuela, further fuelling geopolitical concerns.
Markets are now eyeing key US economic data, including employment figures, jobs data and manufacturing indicators, which are expected to provide clarity on the Federal Reserve’s future policy path. Additionally, steady ETF inflows, strong buying by central banks and expectations of monetary easing by the US Federal Reserve have accelerated the upward momentum in gold prices.
Silver prices also traded higher, tracking gains in gold. The white metal continues to extend its rally on the back of strong industrial demand, persistent supply constraints and China’s export restrictions.
Gold Outlook
Analysts expect gold prices to remain elevated, supported by heightened safe-haven demand. The outlook for the yellow metal remains bullish amid ongoing US–Venezuela tensions and a lack of optimism over a resolution to the Russia–Ukraine conflict. Continued central bank buying, consistent ETF inflows and expectations of policy easing by the Federal Reserve are expected to further support gold prices going forward.
