Expert Opinions on Gold Prices


As reported by a news agency, Saumil Gandhi, a Senior Analyst at HDFC Securities, noted that gold prices have been declining due to a robust increase in the US dollar and heightened expectations for stricter monetary policies. Praveen Singh, the Commodities Head at Mirae Asset Sharekhan, mentioned that gold prices hovered around $4,050 per ounce, as the dollar index surged past the 101 mark, the highest since May 2025. This dollar strength persisted even after European Central Bank President Christine Lagarde suggested that aggressive measures against inflation were unnecessary following the June rate hike. Furthermore, Jatin Trivedi, VP of Commodity and Currency Research at LKP Securities, indicated that the current weakness in gold prices is attributed to liquidity issues stemming from significant profit-taking and selling in global AI and tech stocks. He explained that many investors are liquidating gold holdings to generate cash, meet margin calls, and reduce leverage, leading to a rare scenario where both equities and gold are declining simultaneously, as investors sell off what they can rather than what they prefer.
