Why is the Gold price moving today?
Gold prices are extending declines as uncertainties pertaining to the US-Iran tensions led to a spike in oil prices. The crucial trade route- Strait of Hormuz remains largely closed, which has surged fuel prices back to record high levels.
The trade route transits nearly 20% of the global energy flows. The spike in crude prices has once again stoked inflationary concerns worldwide, and reinforced expectations of tighter monetary policy, weighing on investor sentiment for bullion.
Hawkish monetary policies increase the expectations of rate hikes , which reduce the appeal of non-interest yielding assets like gold as investors tend to shift to interest bearing assets like bonds and currencies.
The dollar index is also trending up on day, further adding to the downside for gold. A strong dollar makes precious metals more expensive for other currency holders, thereby denting demand.
Gold prices have fallen nearly 10% since the West Asia conflict began in February end.
Outlook for Gold Investors
Analysts expect gold prices to remain range-bound as markets continue to monitor the developments in the Middle East tensions. Experts have said that the trajectory of gold largely depends on the re-opening of the Hormuz route.
“A sustained move above ₹1,52,000 could help revive momentum toward Rs 1,53,000 to Rs 1,54,000, said Ponmudi R, CEO of Enrich Money. He added on the downside, a break below Rs 1,51,000– Rs 1,50,000 may lead to a corrective move toward Rs 1,48,000.
Retail investors are advised to track not just domestic rates but also international trends before making buying decisions.
