Outlook on Gold Prices
Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst of Commodity and Currency at LKP Securities, said that the gold prices gained on the MCX and the COMEX index due to a potential US economic uncertainty looming due to the tariff concerns.
“Gold traded higher with a ₹450 gain at ₹85,900 in MCX and a $14 rise to $2,911 in COMEX as dollar index weakness and escalating tariff concerns in the US signaled economic uncertainty,” said the commodity market expert.
The commodity expert also highlighted that the precious yellow metal futures will trade in the range of ₹85,000 to ₹86,500 on the MCX index.
“Safe-haven buying remained strong, with ETF inflows supporting the bullish sentiment. Additionally, cooling US CPI data raised expectations of a potential rate cut from the Fed, further boosting gold’s appeal. The expected trading range for gold is ₹85,000- ₹86,500,” said Trivedi.
