Gold And Silver Prices

Bullion may shine next week as traders await US inflation data, Fed signals

Gold and silver prices are expected to retain their upward momentum next week, though profit-booking at higher levels may temper the rally as investors await key US inflation data, analysts said. US Core Personal Consumption Expenditures (PCE) inflation and GDP figures will be the key triggers for bullion. Developments surrounding West Asia geopolitics, particularly the US-Iran peace deal and reopening of the Strait of Hormuz, will also remain in focus, they added. "In the coming trading session, we expect bias to remain positive, but some profit-booking cannot be ruled out," Pranav Mer, Senior Vice President, EBG - Commodity & Currency Research, JM Financial Services Ltd, said. On the domestic front, gold futures for October delivery gained Rs 7,932, or 5.13 per cent, to close the week at Rs 1.62 lakh per 10 grams on the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX). Silver for September delivery surged Rs 10,673, or 4.52 per cent, to settle at Rs 2.46 lakh per kilogram. "Gold remained firmly

Gold and silver prices are expected to extend their gains next week, as inflation data from major economies and developments on efforts to end hostilities in West Asia are likely to set the tone for bullion, analysts said.

Gold, silver may stay volatile amid US-Iran tensions, inflation data

Gold and silver are expected to remain volatile with a corrective bias in the coming week as investors assess the latest flare-up in the US-Iran conflict, movements in crude oil prices and inflation data that could reshape expectations for global interest rates, analysts said. Fresh hostilities in West Asia have once again put markets on edge. The latest round of tensions began after Iran said it had struck a vessel travelling on an unapproved route and subsequently announced the closure of the Strait of Hormuz. The US Central Command later said it carried out strikes on Tehran, following which Iran retaliated by targeting American-linked installations in the United Arab Emirates, Kuwait, and Bahrain. Analysts said any further escalation in the conflict could drive crude oil prices higher, revive inflation concerns and strengthen safe-haven assets such as the US dollar and Treasury yields, limiting the upside for precious metals. "For gold and silver, momentum remains down and ...

Gold prices slip ₹150, silver declines ₹5,000 amid weak global cues

Gold prices slipped Rs 150 to Rs 1,50,650 per 10 grams in the national capital on Monday, and silver dropped Rs 5,000, as a sluggish global trend and a firm US dollar prompted traders to trim positions in precious metals. The precious metal of 99.9 per cent purity had closed at Rs 1,50,800 per 10 grams in the preceding session. Silver snapped its four-day rally, declining Rs 5,000 to Rs 2,40,000 per kilogram (inclusive of all taxes) from Friday's closing level of Rs 2,45,000 per kg, according to local dealers. Traders said the market remained range-bound as investors balanced lingering geopolitical risks in West Asia against a stronger greenback and expectations surrounding the US Federal Reserve's monetary policy. "Gold prices experienced a slight decline in the domestic markets on Monday, as investors navigated the complex landscape of Washington-Tehran relations while awaiting key inflation data from the US," said Gaurav Garg, Research Analyst at Lemonn Markets Desk. In the ...
