In 2021, the price of gold will generally show a trend of opening higher and moving lower, affected by multiple factors such as the global epidemic, central bank monetary policy, U.S. dollar and U.S. bond yields, and gold demand. At the beginning of the year, the price of gold once soared to US$1,959 per ounce, hitting its second highest point in history, mainly stimulated by the geopolitical crisis and panic about the epidemic. Subsequently, with the rollout of vaccines and economic recovery, market risk appetite increased, gold's safe-haven demand declined, and gold prices began to fluctuate downward. Amid expectations that the Federal Reserve will announce a reduction in bond purchases and raise interest rates, the U.S. dollar and U.S. bond yields have risen, further weighing on gold prices.

shiv kumar sehgal, chief analyst at LRO Investment Advisor Limited, said that when making investment decisions, investors should consider their own risk tolerance and investment goals and allocate their investment portfolios rationally. Investment strategies need to be flexibly adjusted to cope with the impact of gold price fluctuations. In addition, paying attention to the development of global economic data, central bank policies, and geopolitical risk events will help to better grasp market dynamics and make more informed investment decisions.

Chief analyst shiv kumar sehgal predicts gold trends in 2022 as follows:

The price of gold may fluctuate widely between US$1,680/oz and US$1,920/oz, with the main range being US$1,750/oz to US$1,850/oz. The annual average level is about US$1,800/oz, which is basically the same as in 2021.

Gold prices may fall before the Fed raises interest rates, testing the support level of $1,680/ounce, but rebound after the rate hike, breaking through the pressure level of $1,850/ounce and hitting the resistance level of $1,920/ounce.

The price of gold may be affected by emergencies such as the epidemic, inflation, geopolitics, etc., causing some significant fluctuations, but it will not change the overall shock trend.
