Gold continues its winning streak
Gold maintains its winning streak above $3025 (~Rs 88500) as Trump’s tariffs are projected to exacerbate inflation and economic turmoil. Trump said he would hold Iran accountable for any strikes carried out by the Houthi group it supports in Yemen, as his administration escalated the largest US military operation in the Middle East since Trump came to the White House.
Central banks’ accumulation of gold reserves, inflation concerns, and rising demand after the pandemic have contributed to the surge in gold prices.
The Fed is expected to maintain its benchmark interest rate in the 4.25%-4.50% range after its two-day policy meeting on Wednesday.
Technical Triggers
Gold Apr Futures after achieving the $3000 (~Rs 88000) milestone, now is expected to extend this run up towards $3035 (~Rs 88800) and $3080 (~Rs 90000) in the coming weeks. After that, we can see some retracement and profit-booking, which can extend down to $2800 and $2700 maximum.While Silver May Futures has also climbed above $34(~Rs 100,000) on strong demand, the next resistance for the prices is $35(~Rs 103,000).
Precious metals extended their retreat for a second consecutive week as a firmer U.S. dollar and fading expectations of near-term interest-rate cuts from the Federal Reserve weighed on investor appetite for bullion.
In India, gold futures on the Multi Commodity Exchange settled below the ₹1.60-lakh mark per 10 grams at the close of trading on March 14, silver futures declined about 1% for the day, reflecting persistent selling pressure across the metals complex.
Global markets echoed the weakness. Spot gold slipped more than 1%, struggling to hold above $5,050 an ounce, while spot silver tumbled roughly 4% to trade near $80.50 an ounce.
The pullback comes as the strengthening dollar reduces the appeal of dollar-denominated commodities. At the same time, investors are recalibrating expectations that the Federal Reserve will move quickly to ease monetary policy, diminishing one of the key catalysts that had propelled bullion prices higher earlier this year.
Together, the firmer currency and shifting rate outlook have triggered broad profit-taking in precious metals, pushing both gold and silver to their second straight weekly decline.
