Demand for safe investments is particularly high in emerging markets. This is compounded by concerns about the US economy. Last week, the gold price initially fell, but made a comeback towards the end of the week. US labor market data was weak, with only 73,000 new jobs created last month. The employment figures for May and June were also revised downward (14,000 and 19,000 new jobs, respectively). This increases the assumption that the Fed will cut interest rates in September. According to Fed Chairman Powell, no decision has yet been made regarding September, but hopes are rising. Currently, the probability of an interest rate cut is estimated at 92 percent. And if interest rates fall, this is positive for the gold price.

The US dollar fell after the weak labor market report, and gold strengthened as a hedge against negative economic developments. Uncertain trade policy factors are creating a favorable environment for the gold price. Especially in these uncertain times, stability is needed in financial matters. An autumn rally in the price of the precious metal has now become a topic of discussion. This is particularly true since gold usually becomes more expensive after a certain summer lull, at least according to seasonal patterns. If the gold price breaks through historical highs, additional buying interest can be expected.

Most analysts are therefore optimistic, as are the companies that own this valuable commodity, such as Revival Gold and Southern Cross Gold Consolidated.
