Gold and Silver Prices Expected to Rise Amid Inflation and Geopolitical Concerns
Gold and silver prices are expected to continue rising next week, driven by global inflation data, US Federal Reserve policy expectations, and tensions in West Asia. Domestic gold futures rose nearly 6% to 1.51 lakh per 10 grams, while silver futures increased about 7% to 2.31 lakh per kg. Analysts attribute the rally to weaker US labor data and a softer dollar, which suggest a more accommodative monetary stance. Investors will monitor inflation figures from major economies and Chinese economic data, especially for silver's industrial demand.
