🌍 What’s Driving the Gold Rally?

  • Safe-haven demand amid rising geopolitical tensions
  • Weaker US dollar boosting global gold prices
  • US Fed rate cut expectations increasing non-yielding asset appeal
  • Policy uncertainty around potential Trump-era tariff moves

Globally, Comex gold hovered near $5,500 per ounce, rising almost
4% in recent sessions — adding strong tailwinds to domestic prices.

🔮 Market Outlook & Key Resistance

Analysts remain bullish on gold in the medium term, especially if the US Federal Reserve
signals a softer interest rate stance. However, traders advise caution near the
₹1,70,000 resistance zone due to potential volatility from equity market rallies
or sudden dollar strength.

Silver also joined the rally, with MCX silver prices jumping to
₹3,87,640 per kg, up nearly 4.64%, reinforcing the broader precious metals uptrend.

 

With macro uncertainty still high, gold continues to glitter — but sharp moves ahead mean disciplined trading is key.
