Factors Influencing Price Trends
Analysts are attributing this sharp upward movement to a confluence of global and domestic factors. Internationally, gold's status as a "safe-haven asset" is bolstered by ongoing geopolitical tensions and broad economic uncertainty. The weakening of the Indian Rupee against the U.S. dollar, a key domestic factor, also makes gold imports more expensive, contributing to the rise in local prices. Additionally, speculation about potential monetary policy decisions by major central banks, and sustained demand from both individual consumers and central bank purchasing, continues to fuel the bullish sentiment.
