What is the reason

If you look at the reasons for the rising price of gold, then at this time there is a lot of upheaval due to the tariff imposed by US President Donald Trump. There is a trade war between American and China. Between two economic superpower, this business war and the fall in the price of dollar has forced investors to trust gold.

Apart from uncertainties in the market, there has also been a threat of recession in front of the American economy. If there is a slowdown in America, then it will also see an impact in the whole world. At the time when President Trump announced the tariff on 2 April, there has been a situation of chaos in the stock market around the world. However, the market is recovering after the brake on the tariff for 90 days. However, one of the reasons for the rising price of gold is also the wedding season in India, in which its demand increases further.

Satish Dondapati, the fund manager of Kotak Mahindra AMC, says, “This year, gold and silver prices have been seen to be highly fluctuated due to trade tension, expectation of interest rate cuts, geopolitical uncertainties and dollar fall. So far, gold has increased by more than 25 per cent, including gold, including 6% of the tariffs on April 2 from April 2, which has also increased by more than 25 per cent.

Gold Crossed 1 Lakh: The same thing happened in the midst of the uncertainty in the global market. Gold has now crossed the threshold of one lakh. On Monday, gold crossed the price of 10 grams one lakh rupees per 10 grams. In the domestic market, 24 carat gold in the domestic market fell beyond Rs 1 lakh, while it went beyond 99,000 at the beginning of trading on MCX. In such a situation, the question is arising that when there is so much uncertainty all around and there is a threat of recession in the American market, then why is the price of gold reaching the seventh sky? Let us know about its five factor:

1-fear in investors

After the tariff imposed by President Donald Trump, investors are concerned about the future at this time. The trade war in China and America has further increased these uncertainties of the market. In such a situation, there has been a threat of recession in front of the American economy. If there is a recession crisis in America, then it will affect the whole world. This is the reason that the safest investment in front of the investors for safe investment is currently getting gold.

2- Dollar declines

One of the reasons for the increase in the price of gold is the continuous decline in the US dollar. Due to the tariff, the dollar has fallen to 97.92 due to the trade war between the world’s two global economy, which is the lowest level in three years. If the price of the dollar continues to fall in this way, a new crisis will arise in front of the American economy. This is the reason that US President Donald Trump is now rethinking his strategy to pressurize other countries by using tariffs, because it is causing damage to the American economy.

3-shadow season

One of the major reasons for increasing the price of gold is our social and cultural engagement in it. Jewelry is compulsorily considered in weddings, which is given to the bride. Apart from this, Akshaya Tritiya is also on the end of this month i.e. 30 April. In such a situation, the shopping being done by the people has also kept the price of gold more.

4- Trend towards gold

People have a tendency towards gold whether they either consider the property to be a better option or investment in terms of investment. In such a situation, an uncertainty in the property market in the last few years has also attracted people from Gold. If you look at in the last five years, its price has doubled since 2020. In 2020, Rs 50151 per ten grams was available, which has now crossed one lakh in 2025.

5-Experts estimate

It was constantly said by the market experts that the price of gold may increase further in the coming days. One of the reasons is that people are considering investment in future by thinking of increasing its price.
