Global Gold Market (Gold Spot)

March 2026 has been “the most volatile month in years.” Gold prices surged to a new All-Time High of $5,400 amid Middle East tensions, before collapsing to $4,098 in a panic sell-off. As of March 25, prices have rebounded, holding above $4,570–$4,600.

Current Status: In a “potential rebound zone” after a major correction
Support & Resistance Tonight: $4,550 / $4,480 / $4,320 vs. $4,600 / $4,635 / $4,710
Short-Term Strategy: Holding above $4,600 could restart an uptrend; dropping below $4,550 may trigger further correction
 

⚔️ Why Gold Was So Volatile During the War (USA–Israel–Iran Conflict)

Many wonder why gold, a classic safe-haven asset, plunged sharply in mid-March despite ongoing conflict. The answer lies in market behavior and economic pressures:

Cash is King: Investors sold assets to hold U.S. dollars for margin calls and liquidity
Dollar Surge: The USD, seen as the most liquid safe haven, pushed the Dollar Index from 96 to 99–100, making gold more expensive for other currencies
Sell on Fact: Prices often rise before events (Buy the Rumor), then investors take profits once war breaks out
Inflation & Rates: War-driven oil spikes raised inflation fears; markets worry the Fed will keep rates high, reducing gold’s appeal
Summary: Gold didn’t fall because the war ended, but because “investors rushed to cash” and the “strong dollar suppressed gold.”

 
Key Factors This Week (March 23–27, 2026)

U.S. Economic Data: GDP Q4, Jobless Claims, and PCE Price Index (Fed’s key indicators)
Geopolitics: Attacks on energy infrastructure could push gold back to $5,000; U.S. has proposed a one-month ceasefire
Dollar Index: Currently ~99.5, strong USD remains a major headwind
 

Q2 Outlook (April–June 2026)

Global institutions still project gold in the $4,900–$5,400 range, supported by central bank buying:

Goldman Sachs: $4,900 – $5,400
J.P. Morgan: $4,000 – $5,055
Bank of America: $5,000 – $6,000
Hua Seng Heng: Accumulate at $4,200–$4,250, target $4,900
Overall Trend: Sideway Up within $4,300–$5,000 if no new negative shocks

 

Thai Gold Price (96.5%)

At the start of 2026, Thai gold hit a record 81,950 THB, then corrected sharply in March. As of March 25, it rebounded above 71,000 THB.

Short-Term Range: 69,500 – 72,500 THB (supported by weaker baht)
Q2 Target: If Gold Spot breaks $5,000, Thai gold could test 75,000–78,000 THB
 

Investment Strategy (SO OK TRADING View | March 25, 2026)

Short Term (Late March): Focus on “buy dips, sell rebounds” with quick trades due to high volatility
Mid Term (Q2): Accumulate at $4,300 (global) or 68,000 THB (Thai)
First Half of 2026: If geopolitical tensions escalate again, gold could revisit $5,400 globally and 78,000 THB in Thailand. Watch USD Index, inflation, and economic data closely.
