On August 27, gold prices edged higher on Thursday as concerns over currency depreciation persisted, while market attention turned to the highly anticipated speech by Federal Reserve Chair Walsh this week. OANDA senior market analyst Kelvin Wong stated that the narrative of dollar depreciation, coupled with worries about the U.S. budget deficit, continues to support gold in the medium term. The U.S. Treasury previously announced an expansion of its purchases of previously issued long-term bonds, raising concerns about dollar depreciation, which led to a more than 5% increase in gold prices last week. Wong added, "The market is waiting for Walsh's speech to gain a clearer understanding of how the Federal Reserve will respond to the current economic situation. If he does not provide specific forward guidance on monetary policy, the market's current pricing for interest rate hikes is likely to remain largely unchanged." On the geopolitical front, the Prime Minister of Qatar is set to visit Tehran to restart diplomatic mediation. The U.S. and Iran have previously exchanged accusations, with the focus of contention involving Washington's commitment to increase economic pressure on Tehran by sanctioning Iran's trade partners.
