Takaki Kabutomiki (Yasumi) "Weekly Gold Price Outlook" April 27, 2026 issue

Takao Kabutogi, President and CEO of Investment Daily Report Co., Ltd., a pioneer in astrology-based market analysis and a leading figure in financial cycle analysis, writes a weekly report on gold price outlook.

----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

Notice: The May 4th (Monday) issue will be on domestic Golden Week holidays, so we will be taking a休み.

Last week’s NY gold market (near-month) closed at 4,740.9 dollars, down 138.7 dollars from the previous week. It feels like we are beginning to distance from the Iran situation. As for near-term indicators, we have to rely on interest rates and the dollar, but the two indicators are mixed. Interest rates are flat. The dollar index hit a low of 97.63 on April 17 and has since rebounded; during this period, the gold price has been on a decline.

Since April, this relationship has strengthened. The so-called safe-haven dollar buying has ended. President Trump also seems to take the Iran situation as matter-of-fact. For the world and Iran, it is troublesome; although they joined the attack due to pressure from Israel, domestic public opinion has turned strongly against it, and with the midterm elections looking bleak, it seems they are trying to divert public attention elsewhere. Negotiations with Iran were set with a deadline, but Iran refused, and eventually there is no negotiation deadline, leaving things unsettled.
