Gold and Silver Prices Rebound Amid Rate Hike Expectations and Geopolitical Concerns

Analysed 2 Jul 2026·50 sources analysed·Sintra, Portugal·Business
Gold and Silver Prices Rebound Amid Rate Hike Expectations and Geopolitical ConcernsPreviousNext

Gold and silver prices experienced a rebound after recent declines but remain on track for significant monthly and quarterly losses amid expectations of further US Federal Reserve interest rate hikes and a strong US dollar. Fading prospects of a US-Iran peace deal have heightened inflation concerns, reinforcing rate hike bets. In India, gold demand has dropped sharply due to higher customs duties and government appeals to postpone purchases. Investors await upcoming US employment data and Fed signals for future market direction.
