Gold Falls Near Rs 1.49 Lakh, Silver Gains Amid Dollar Strength and Geopolitical Risks
Gold prices declined about 1% to around Rs 1.49 lakh per 10 grams on the MCX amid a stronger US dollar, rising US Treasury yields, and geopolitical uncertainties, including US-Iran tensions. Silver, however, gained modestly, outperforming gold and trading above Rs 2.26 lakh per kg. Analysts noted key support and resistance levels for both metals, with gold needing to hold above Rs 1.50 lakh to stabilize. Market sentiment remains cautious ahead of the RBI's monetary policy decision and upcoming global economic data.
