Domestic gold prices on January 1 tended to increase slightly, the market on the last day of the 2024 New Year holiday.
In the last week of 2023, the trading session on December 29 witnessed gold prices fluctuate continuously, notably the fluctuation amplitude at times reached 1.5 million VND, bringing the selling price to about 74 million VND/tael. The decrease in gold prices has narrowed the gap between domestic and world gold prices, which is considered to be closer to the reasonable value.
Analysts believe that this is the market's corrective response to the Prime Minister's direction and the State Bank's actions on gold market management solutions, aiming to stabilize and develop a safe, healthy, effective and sustainable gold market. Because, according to the direction and management information of the management agency, the domestic gold bar price is the target that needs to be adjusted and the problem of unreasonable price increases that create an unstable and opaque psychological effect for the gold market.

Gold price trend 2024
Despite a strong US dollar and rising US Treasury yields, gold prices remain stable in 2023, returning around 13% internationally and nearly 16% in the US domestic market.
Precious metals are getting support from economic uncertainty amid geopolitical tensions and expectations of a rate cut by the US Federal Reserve (Fed) in 2024.
Stable inflation also supports gold prices as it is seen as a hedge against inflation. When the value of money decreases due to rising inflation, investors tend to buy gold to preserve the value of their investments, which increases the demand for gold, causing gold prices to rise.
The outlook for gold is positive as experts believe that gold prices could remain elevated in the medium term due to geopolitical factors. They stressed that investors can continue to invest in gold and buy more when prices fall.
Gold is considered a safe haven asset during times of geopolitical uncertainty, economic uncertainty, or financial market turmoil. Additionally, exposure to gold diversifies one's portfolio and reduces the risk of overexposure to any one asset class.
Here are some experts' views on gold's prospects in 2024, according to Mint :
Sunil Subramaniam, CEO of Sundaram Mutual Fund:
Gold is a good investment option right now due to expectations of a two-to-three year rate cutting cycle and a consequent weakening of the US dollar.
The ideal allocation would be 2/3 equities and a balance of gold for investors who are comfortable with some degree of volatility. For more conservative investors, a 50:25:25 ratio of equity: gold: debt would be more appropriate.
These views are for a 5 year holding period. Anything shorter in timeframe is not recommended based on valuation status.
Chirag Mehta, Chief Investment Officer, Quantum AMC and Ghazal Jain, Head of Alternative Investment Funds, Quantum AMC
Gold could be a useful asset to hold in 2024. As interest rates peak and the timing and extent of rate cuts remain uncertain, it could create opportunities for speculative markets, creating volatility across asset markets, including gold.
The market can swing between optimism and pessimism, creating wild short-term swings in gold prices on both sides. These swings should be used wisely when building a gold allocation.
Naveen Mathur, Head, Commodities and Currencies and Anand Rathi Shares, Stockbroker
Gold is set to outperform most commodities traded in 2023 in the international market with the outlook for next year also looking solid.
As the impact of higher interest rates begins to weigh on growth in coming quarters, market participants are predicting a rate cut by the end of the first quarter of 2024.
Historically, gold has delivered positive average monthly returns during periods of low interest rates.
Looking ahead, we expect gold to see a new all-time high in 2024, with $2,250 still achievable in the first half of 2024.
MCX Gold could also witness new all-time highs with a target of ₹67,000 – ₹68,000 per 10 grams, with annual returns of 10–11% by 2024.
Deepak Jasani, Head of Retail Research at HDFC Securities
In 2023, two major developments – geopolitical uncertainty and economic uncertainty – pushed gold to new highs in the US and Comex markets.
Going forward, there is upside potential as markets are pricing in a series of rate cuts through 2024, which could reduce demand for the US dollar and Treasury yields, boosting demand for gold.
Continued central bank buying and an expected recovery in ETF buying could be additional bullish factors for gold.
We believe gold will continue to deliver impressive returns in 2024. Comex gold finds support at $1,925 – $1,860/oz and resistance at $2,126 – $2,181/oz.
As such, the overall outlook for gold prices in 2024 looks positive, supported by central banks accumulating the precious metal after each dip.
In 2022, central banks bought more than 1,000 tonnes of gold, and in 2023, accumulation reached nearly 800 tonnes in the first nine months of the year, reflecting a 14% increase year-on-year.
Technical indicators paint a bullish picture for gold as the precious metal trades above the 20- and 60-period exponential moving averages (EMAs) on the monthly chart, with the Relative Strength Index (RSI) crossing above 60, indicating strong bullish momentum.
A monthly close above $2,070 is poised to pave the way for gold to rise to $2,250, implying a potential return of nearly 9% over a year
