00:00 We saw a record level of gold prices in the beginning of April, and in April, it rose to the third month in a row.

00:08 These increases were supported by geopolitical tensions, where investors are heading towards gold as a safe haven,

00:16 and also because the central banks bought a kind of a "movement".

00:22 In January, the central banks around the world raised their gold reserves by about 39 tons,

00:29 and the Turkish Central Bank was the largest gold buyer in January.

00:34 But what are the expectations and how will gold prices be, especially after the US Federal Reserve's statements?

00:40 The US Federal Reserve's Chairman said that it is unlikely that the next step will be to raise interest rates.

00:48 This statement gives support to gold and comfort to investors, as it will not raise interest rates.

00:57 At the end of 2023, the US Federal Reserve was expected to lower interest rates six times,

01:04 and then three times.

01:06 But most of the expectations now expect only one decrease in interest rates at the end of 2024.

01:14 So how will the gold prices move?

01:17 Citibank said that it expects to reach the price of gold at about $3,000 at the end of the year,

01:24 in the first quarter of 2025.

01:27 Goldman Sachs expects gold prices to reach $2,700 per ounce.

01:34 Now let's look at the US employment data, which will be released later this week,

01:42 especially after the job opportunities were reviewed and the ATP was issued,

01:46 with 325,000 jobs being offered since February 2021.
