Gold and silver prices have shown resilience, closing August on a strong note, driven by a weakening U.S. dollar and expectations of a Federal Reserve rate cut. Comex gold achieved a new all-time high at $2,527.6 per ounce, up 2.2% for the month, while silver also gained marginally. Analysts suggest that the upcoming U.S. jobs report could significantly influence market sentiment, with a weak report potentially solidifying expectations for rate cuts. Trend investor Alex Krainer and VanEck Portfolio Manager Imaru Casanova both highlighted the potential for substantial returns in gold and silver as the Fed begins to unwind its rate hikes, drawing parallels to past market behavior. However, caution persists, as price movements will depend on key economic data. Overall, the outlook remains positive for gold and silver, with possible further gains in the coming months.
