Why is the Gold price moving today?
Gold prices are trending sideways amid uncertainties pertaining to tensions in the Middle East and a record-high dollar index. A firm dollar makes precious assets like gold more expensive for other currency holders, thereby denting demand.
Iran said on Monday that it is willing to end the war with the US and would reopen the trade route—the Strait of Hormuz—if the US agrees to end the war. However, oil prices remain elevated, which continues to spike inflationary concerns, thereby increasing demand for interest-yielding assets.
Markets currently price in no rate cuts by the US Federal Reserve for this year, in contrast to pre-war expectations of a forecast of two rate cuts.
Outlook for Gold Investors
Analysts expect gold prices to remain range-bound in the near term amid geopolitical uncertainties prevailing in the US-Israel war with Iran. Soaring prices of oil, along with the dollar index, continue to weigh on investor sentiment for gold. Inflationary concerns worldwide have shifted central banks towards a hawkish stance.
“MCX Gold June futures are likely to find support near Rs 149,000/10g and appreciate during the session,” said Jigar Trivedi, Senior Research Analyst at Indusind Securities.
Retail investors are advised to track not just domestic rates but also international trends before making buying decisions.
