MCX Gold and Silver Decline Sticky Inflation Fears
There Was Profit-Booking Following Recent Highs Fueled Speculation Around Central Bank Monetary Tightening.
Gold and silver prices dropped by up to 1% on the MCX as sticky inflation fears, volatile energy prices, and profit-booking following recent highs fueled speculation around central bank monetary tightening.
Inflation & Rate Hike Speculation: Despite July US CPI moderating to 3.4% YoY and PPI remaining flat, inflation remains well above the Fed’s 2% target. Markets are currently pricing in a ~1-in-3 chance of a September rate hike.
Energy & Geopolitical Volatility: Ongoing Middle East conflicts—amplified by US naval blockades of Iranian ports—have pushed oil prices above $87/bbl, creating energy-driven inflation risks.
Mixed Economic Signals: Weak US payrolls (dropping 23,000 in July vs. +80,000 expected) initially supported rate-freeze bets, but upcoming PCE data (due August 26) keeps traders cautious.
Profit-Taking: Technical profit booking emerged after gold breached its 100-day moving average.
