Gold Price Drops: Dollar Strength, Israel-Hamas Ceasefire Impact

by Priya Shah – Business Editor

Gold ⁣Prices Dip⁤ as Dollar Strengthens, Geopolitical Tensions Ease – October 10, ⁢2025

Bangkok, ThailandWorld gold prices experienced a downward correction today, October ​10, 2025, according to ‌Hua ​Seng Heng, responding to a ‌strengthening US Dollar ‍and a tentative easing of geopolitical anxieties.

The Dollar Index (DXY) ⁢continued its four-day climb, reaching⁤ 99.39 units – up from 97.95 – fueled by concerns ​over potential monetary and fiscal⁤ easing in Japan, which has⁤ weakened the Yen. Political instability in France,marked ​by the ⁤Prime Minister’s resignation,also contributed⁣ to a weaker Euro,further bolstering the dollar. The 10-year US bond yield remained relatively stable,fluctuating between 4.11%⁤ and 4.14%.

Adding to the downward ‌pressure, a ceasefire‌ agreement between Hamas and​ Israel offered a‍ temporary reprieve from safe-haven demand. The agreement stipulates the release of approximately 2,000 Palestinian⁢ prisoners by ‍Israel in exchange for ⁤20​ living and the remains of 28 deceased Israeli⁤ hostages held by Hamas. ​

This combination of factors prompted investors to reduce their gold holdings. SPDR Gold Trust holdings decreased ⁣by 1.14 ⁤tons, bringing the total ⁤to 1,013.44 tons,⁢ signaling a shift in investor sentiment.

Trading Strategy & Key Levels

Analysts recommend a short-term⁣ strategy ‍of accumulating gold at the $3,960‌ support‌ level,with a​ profit target of $4,000. However,a breach of the ⁤$3,940 support⁢ level should trigger ⁢a sell-off to limit‍ potential ‍losses.

Thai Gold Market⁢ Mirrors Global Trend

the domestic gold market mirrored the global downturn,with ⁢prices falling ⁣600 baht‌ today. The Thai ‌Baht’s four-day weakening further exacerbated‍ the decline.Traders are advised to ​consider buying and accumulating near the 61,650 baht support level, aiming ​to sell ⁤at the 62,050 baht ​resistance. A break below the‌ 61,450 baht support level warrants ⁤a sell‍ order to mitigate risk.
