Gold prices in India have come down by about ₹5,000 from their record-high levels of nearly ₹1,00,000 per 10 grams. Experts believe this drop is due to a few major factors affecting both global and Indian markets.
Gold prices in India have come down by about ₹5,000 from their record-high levels of nearly ₹1,00,000 per 10 grams. Experts believe this drop is due to a few major factors affecting both global and Indian markets.
Firstly, technical charts, which are used to analyze price patterns, are now showing early signs that the strong upward trend in gold prices might be slowing down. In simple words, it means the prices may not rise as sharply as before, and might even fall a little more. This has made traders and investors cautious.
Another reason behind the easing of gold prices is a slight recovery in the value of the US Dollar. When the dollar gets stronger, gold prices tend to dip a bit since gold becomes more expensive in other currencies. On top of that, comments from US President Donald Trump about reducing trade tariffs on countries like India and Japan have also helped reduce pressure on gold prices globally.
Even though gold is still seen as one of the safest investment options, especially during uncertain times, the extremely high demand we saw earlier has now settled down a little. The premium—extra charges on top of the base price—has also reduced slightly as investors wait to see where the market goes next.
