Silver Also Becomes Cheaper
Along with gold, the price of silver has also decreased. Today, the rate of one kilogram of silver is ₹1,14,900, which is ₹1,000 less than yesterday. The price of silver remains almost the same in most major cities of the country.
Reasons Behind the Fall in Prices
The activities in the international market have a direct impact on the prices of gold and silver. Currently, news of potential talks and a peace process between the United States and Russia has increased investor confidence, which has somewhat reduced the rush to buy gold as a safe investment.
In addition, after the recent sharp rise in gold prices, many investors started selling to make profits, which is called profit booking in market terms. This has also put pressure on gold prices.
Impact of a Stronger Dollar
The strength of the dollar is also having an impact on gold prices. When the dollar is b, gold prices generally weaken because investors tend to consider the dollar a safer bet. Currently, the dollar index has improved in the international market, which has pulled down gold prices.
Slight Sluggishness in Domestic Demand
Fluctuations in gold and silver prices are often seen before the arrival of the festival and wedding season. Something similar has happened this time as well. Currently, people's purchasing has decreased slightly, and on top of that, the trend in the international market is also weak. As a result, the prices of both gold and silver have slipped.
