Gold Price Forecast: XAU/USD sharp rally likely to temper discretionary Gold buying in 2024 – ANZ
Source Fxstreet
Physical Gold demand has been showing a strong resilience to higher prices since 2021. However, any further increase in physical demand will be limited, strategists at ANZ Bank say.
Higher prices could temper physical offtake this year
Demand for Gold is still strong in China, as imports doubled to 153t in January from the previous month. This makes us think the motivation behind investment in Gold may mitigate affordability issues due to the sharp rise in Gold prices. This could keep demand steady, but a significant increase will be unlikely.
India’s Gold consumption fell marginally in 2023, though remained near the pre-pandemic average of 750t. Structural Gold demand looks strong due to the increasingly affluent population, but the recent price rally could weigh on physical offtake. We estimate Gold consumption to remain steady at 750t in 2024.

Bitcoin's double top at $88,000: why $78,000 is the line that decides the next moveBitcoin trades near $82,500 (+0.47%) after twice failing at the $88,000 area, forming a potential double top with a neckline at $78,000.

Brent slips from $110 as Russian supply prospects return — is the five-month rally over?Brent crude traded near $108.06 on Monday (-1.71%), pulling back from last week's $110 high after Washington moved to ease restrictions on Russian oil flows. WTI hovered around $101 before dipping below $99. The retreat is real, but so is the supply-risk premium: Hormuz shipping disruptions, attacks on Saudi energy infrastructure and strikes on Russian refineries remain live. Here are the three numbers, the transmission chain and the levels that matter.
