The price of Gold (XAUUSD) faced selling pressure from profit taking<\/em> during last Friday’s trading, following its previous record high of US$4,379 per troy ounce. Gold closed the trading session on Friday at US$4,251 per troy ounce, representing a decline of nearly US$75 (750 pip) compared to Thursday’s close.<\/p>\n

The profit taking<\/em> occurred after U.S. President Donald Trump indicated a potential meeting with Chinese President Xi Jinping at the end of this month. This statement somewhat eased tensions between the two nations, particularly after President Trump announced on October 10 that he would raise tariffs on all imports from China by 100%, effective November 1. At that time, Trump suggested that a meeting with Xi Jinping might no longer be necessary.<\/p>\n

The easing of these tensions led to further profit taking<\/em> in gold prices early Monday (October 20, 2025), with prices touching US$4,219 per troy ounce.<\/p>\n

Trump’s softened stance ahead of the Central Committee meeting of China’s Communist Party from October 20 to 23 is notable. This Central Committee meeting will set targets for the next five years, which may lead to discussions regarding Trump’s import tariff policies. The outcomes of this Central Committee gathering could potentially trigger significant movements in the financial markets this week.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
