Gold Price & Silver Price Outlook
According to Rahul Kalantri, VP Commodities, Mehta Equities, after a solid two-month rally, gold and silver prices came under heavy selling pressure last week, with the weakness extending into Monday's session as both metals slipped below key psychological levels - $4,000 for gold and $47 per ounce for silver. The decline is being driven by a stronger dollar index and renewed optimism over U.S. trade discussions with China and India. Sentiment was further influenced by the Gaza peace progress, leading to profit-taking across the board. However, rupee weakness support bullion prices at lower. Meanwhile, attention is turning to upcoming central bank meetings, with the Federal Reserve widely expected to deliver a 25 basis point rate cut following weak inflation data, while both the ECB and BOJ are anticipated to maintain steady policy stances.
He added, "Gold has support at $3940-3905 while resistance at $4055-4100. Silver has support at $46.10-45.55 while resistance is at $47.35-48.00. In INR gold has support at Rs1,20,570-1,20,180 while resistance at Rs1,21,650-1,22,000. Silver has support at Rs1,42,350-1,41,450 while resistance at Rs1,44,850, 1,45,780.''
