Gold and Silver Prices Decline Ahead of Karwa Chauth Amid Inflation and Fed Rate Concerns
Gold and silver prices declined sharply ahead of Karwa Chauth and the festive season, influenced by global factors such as the US Federal Reserve's steady interest rates amid inflation concerns and expectations of future hikes. Rising US bond yields, a stronger dollar, and higher crude oil prices have added pressure on these non-yielding assets. Despite recent falls, experts suggest potential price rebounds by year-end, though volatility may persist, affecting buyers and investors during this key purchasing period.
