Insights from Market Analysts

Market participants are closely observing global trends. Analysts noted that reduced geopolitical tensions have positively influenced domestic equity markets and strengthened the rupee, which in turn diminishes the attractiveness of safe-haven assets like gold. However, supportive international factors have helped stabilize bullion prices. Praveen Singh, head of commodities at Mirae Asset Sharekhan, mentioned that lower oil prices are benefiting spot gold. Oil prices reached new lows recently due to developments concerning the US-Iran agreement. Jatin Trivedi, Vice President Research Analyst at LKP Securities, highlighted that traders are monitoring the US-Iran deal closely, as it affects sentiment in the bullion and commodity markets. Ravi Singh, Chief Research Officer at Master Capital Services, pointed out that MCX Gold futures closed nearly flat at 153,091, remaining below the 21-day and 55-day EMAs, indicating a weak short-term trend. He noted that the 154,000–154,500 range is a significant barrier for bullish traders, while 151,000 serves as immediate support. A break below this level could lead to prices dropping towards 148,000. Until prices move beyond this range, traders are likely to remain cautious. Singh also mentioned that international gold prices have seen gains for five consecutive sessions, driven by optimism surrounding the US-Iran deal, which has alleviated inflation concerns. The combination of lower crude oil prices and a weaker US dollar has supported bullion prices, while traders are also focused on the Federal Reserve’s policy outlook.
