Major reason for decline and weakness in gold prices
The policies of the US Federal Reserve are playing a major role in the slowdown that has prevailed in the international and Indian bullion markets for the last few days. In fact, the market has full hope that to control rising inflation, interest rates in America may remain at a high level in the coming days. Whenever interest rates go high, big investors prefer to move their money out of non-interest bearing traditional assets like gold and invest it in bonds and other government instruments, due to which the shine of gold starts fading.
Big impact of strong dollar and decreasing geopolitical tension
Apart from all this, the increasing strength of the US dollar in the international market is also suppressing the prices of gold. Since all gold trading at the global level is done in US dollars, as the dollar strengthens, it becomes very expensive for buyers from other countries like India to buy gold, due to which its demand decreases and prices fall.
On the other hand, market experts believe that the ongoing geopolitical tension and war situation in West Asia is gradually calming down. Due to reduced tension, the risk appetite of global investors has increased again and now instead of considering gold as a safe haven, they are increasingly running towards the stock market.
Is this the right time to invest in gold or should we wait longer?
Big bullion market experts and experts say that for those who want to invest in gold for the long term, the current prices can be very attractive and a good opportunity for them. However, there may be some fluctuations in the market in the short term which will directly depend on the US economic data. For those who are planning to buy heavy jewelery for weddings, this time can prove to be a better opportunity because the prices have softened a bit, while pure investors should keep their eyes on the next policies of the Fed.
