Gold Price Predictions: There has been a sharp decline in the prices of gold and silver in the last three-four days, whereas due to global turmoil, their prices were continuously touching record levels for the last one year. In such a situation, it is natural to raise a question in the minds of investors whether it would be right to buy gold and silver during this decline or would it be better to wait for the prices to come down further. In fact, the main reasons for the big fall in the bullion market after reaching record high this week are believed to be the strengthening of the US dollar and rising expectations regarding America’s monetary policy.
Why the fall in gold and silver?
A major reason behind the decline in gold and silver is that speculation has intensified about the Trump administration nominating Kevin Wersh for the post of head of the US Federal Reserve. This has increased expectations regarding reduction in interest rates, which has directly affected the dollar and precious metals. Apart from this, the impact of geopolitical uncertainties and long-term policy signals is also visible in the market.
At the domestic level, there was no major announcement regarding gold and silver in Budget 2026, due to which these metals could not get any significant support. Now the eyes of the market are fixed on the upcoming decisions of RBI, America’s employment data and PMI data, only after which it will be clear whether the prices will stabilize or there will be further fluctuations.
What do experts say?
Experts believe that at present there will be uncertainty in the prices of gold and silver. According to Manav Modi, Senior Analyst, Motilal Oswal Financial Services, the prices of these metals may continue to fluctuate in the coming times, hence investors need to act with caution. Meanwhile, the fall continued for the second consecutive day on Sunday, where the price of silver fell nine percent to Rs 2.65 lakh per kg in futures trade, while gold fell three percent to Rs 1.47 lakh per 10 grams.
Silver for March delivery closed at the lower circuit in the Multi Commodity Exchange (MCX). According to Pranav Mer, Vice President, EBG – Commodity and Currency Research, JM Financial Services, in the domestic market, gold has fallen by about 20 per cent from its all-time high, while silver has slipped by almost 37 per cent, which reflects the recent sharp profit-booking and natural decline after the extreme rise in prices.
