Citi expects gold price to consolidate around $3,100-$3,500 in third quarter
June 30 (Reuters) - Citi expects the price of gold to consolidate around $3,100 to $3,500 per ounce in the third quarter, as prices moderate due to geopolitical de-escalation in the Middle East and an improved global growth outlook, the bank said in a note on Monday. "We expect continued price consolidation ... and highlight our view that we may have already seen the highs at $3,500/oz in late April as the gold market deficit is peaking soon if not already," Citi said in the note. It added that gold prices have dropped by over $100 per ounce since the bank lowered its 0-3 month price target from $3,500 per ounce to $3,300 per ounce in its mid-June third-quarter outlook, with the metal now trading just below that revised target. The bank expects the gold market deficit to peak during the third quarter. And the market should fundamentally weaken thereafter, driven by lower investment demand. Citi expects gold prices to fall back to $2,500 to $2,700 per ounce by the second half of 2026 and said it "strongly (recommends) gold producers take insurance against downside in prices from current levels."

World economy will slow sharply despite US-China tariff truce: Fitch
The recent de-escalation in US-China trade tensions has led Fitch Ratings to make broad-based upward revisions to its global growth forecasts compared to the previous Global Economic Outlook (GEO) published in mid-April. But the world economy still faces a sharp slowdown induced by the most severe trade war since the 1930s, said Fitch in its June 2025 GEO. Fitch now forecasts world GDP growth at 2.2% in 2025, an upward revision of 0.3pp since the April GEO. We have also raised our forecasts for growth in 2026 to 2.2% from 2.0%. These rates are well below the 2.9% recorded in 2024 and the longer-term average of 2.7%. We have raised the US growth outlook for 2025 to 1.5% from 1.2%, with recession risks receding. But there are signs of an underlying slowdown in final domestic demand, and we expect consumption to slow in 2H25, stated the top ratings agency. China's 2025 growth forecast has also been raised to 4.2% from 3.9%. We revised up eurozone growth to 0.8% from 0.6%. "Our latest estimate of the US Effective Tariff Rate (ETR) is 14.2%. Our base case assumes it will rise slightly further in the coming months, approaching the 18% rate assumed in the March GEO," it stated. "This is well below the 27% rate assumed in the April GEO. Our latest GDP forecasts remain weaker than in the March GEO, however, reflecting extreme volatility in US trade policy in recent months which has increased uncertainty and will further weigh on growth," it added. The tariffs have reduced US business and consumer confidence and prompted a spike in US imports in 1Q25 as US residents sought to front-run tariff increases. Inventories also rose sharply. There is little evidence of any impact on the US CPI so far, but upstream producer price and survey measures of price pressures have risen. There have been downward pressures on US financial asset prices as reflected in equity market volatility, a weakening dollar and higher long-term 30-year government bond yields. In China, fiscal easing is the key policy lever to offset the US tariff shock. But broader dollar weakness and ongoing falls in local-currency export prices could also help Chinese exporters to gain market share in other countries as China's effective exchange rate falls, said Fitch in its report. For Germany, US tariff hikes – including on autos – are yet another adverse external shock. But there have been some encouraging signs on domestic demand recently, and fiscal policy should help growth to recover in 2026. The Federal Reserve is likely to be cautious about cutting rates as US growth slows, and we still expect only a single rate cut this year in 4Q25. Tariffs will push up inflation, labour force growth is slowing sharply, and some inflation expectation measures remain high. "Recent oil price volatility adds further upside inflation risks. We have raised our 2025 annual average oil price assumption by $5 to $70 a barrel," said Fitch Ratings in its report. "The ECB appears more comfortable with recent progress on wage and price disinflation, and we expect a further cut in rates to a below-neutral 1.75% in September," it added. -TradeArabia News Service Copyright 2024 Al Hilal Publishing and Marketing Group Provided by SyndiGate Media Inc.

Premier Li Qiang says China's economy a ‘source of certainty' amid global risks
China will continue to be a land of opportunities and an engine of global growth and stability, even as the world faces rising geopolitical challenges and uncertainties, Chinese Premier Li Qiang said at the Asian Infrastructure Investment Bank's (AIIB) Annual Meeting in Beijing. 'China remains the country that contributes the greatest impetus to global economic growth, and the most significant source of certainty for world peace and development,' he said on Thursday. Li's remarks came a day after he told the World Economic Forum's Annual Meeting of the New Champions in Tianjin that China's growth would remain 'at a relatively fast speed' and that the country would 'do its utmost' to address challenges facing the global economy. Despite mounting external challenges, China has shown resilience, Li said, citing its solid performance in the first two quarters of this year. He pointed to the 5.4 per cent year-on-year GDP growth in the first quarter, which he called a hard-won achievement. Beijing has set an annual GDP target of about 5 per cent this year. 'China's economy will remain a hotbed of opportunity for the global economy in the years to come,' he added.
