Why is the Gold price moving today?
Gold prices have moved sharply in the domestic markets as the central government implemented import hikes by raising duties on gold imports to 15% from 6%. On the Multi Commodity Exchange, gold prices hit their upper circuit as the markets cited that the gems and jewellery industry is likely to face challenges over the recently raised tariffs.
However, globally, gold prices were trending sideways over dimmed expectations of monetary policy easing by the US Federal Reserve. Some market participants also expect the US central bank to hike rates later in the year. Higher interest rates reduce the appeal of non-interest-yielding assets..
Outlook for Gold Investors
For the Indian markets, analysts suggest gold prices to rise in the near term, citing the recent imposition of high tariffs. The increase in import duties will likely create difficulties for the gems and jewellery industry, causing a panic-like situation in the markets, the brunt of which is likely to be passed down to the consumer.
With the hike being announced during the peak marriage season, industry experts also weigh in that grey market activity is likely to rise. “Near-term resistance is seen around Rs 170000 per ten grams and support at Rs 145000 per ten grams,” said Hareesh V, Head of Commodity Research, Geojit Investments.
Retail investors are advised to track not just domestic rates but also international trends before making buying decisions.
