Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD to retest record highs on a close above 55-DMA at $1,962 – Credit Suisse

Gold is set to find a floor as analysts at Credit Suisse look for following the decline to their $1,900/1,890 target, for an eventual retest of the $2,063/2,075 record highs.

Weekly close below $1,868 to reinforce the longer-term sideways range

Gold is showing signs of stabilization as looked for at our target of price support and the 38.2% retracement of the 2022/2023 uptrend at $1,900/1,890. With the key rising 200-DMA seen not far below at $1,868 and with the USD starting to weaken again, our bias remains for a major floor to be found here. 

We look for a test of resistance at the 55-DMA at $1,962 initially, a close above which can add weight to our view for a retest of major resistance at the $2,063/2,075 record highs. We still stay biased to an eventual break to new record highs later in the year, which would then be seen to open the door to a move above $2,300. 

A weekly close below $1,868 though would be seen to reinforce the longer-term sideways range, and a fall to support next at $1,810/05.

De-dollarisation by design: Gold’s partner in the new system

You don’t need another 2008 for the system to reset. You just need enough nations to stop settling trade in dollars. And that’s already happening. "If gold is the anchor, what actually moves value in a post-dollar world?” It’s a question most gold investors overlook. We think in terms of storage and preservation, but in the new rails being built, settlement speed matters just as much as soundness of money.
