Global Market Impact on Gold Prices
In the global market, Comex Gold futures rose marginally to USD 2,679.50 per ounce.
Saumil Gandhi, Senior Analyst of Commodities at HDFC Securities, attributed the decline in gold prices to an increase in US bond yields and the US dollar. “The Federal Reserve may cut interest rates less this year, as last week’s strong job report supported a rally in US Treasury yields and the US dollar,” he said. The US 10-year treasury yield, which underpins the global cost of financing, reached a 14-month high on Monday.

“Additionally, risk-on sentiment shifted, with flows moving from safe-haven assets to riskier assets after news that members of Donald Trump’s economic team discussed a gradual approach to ramping up tariffs to avoid an inflation spike,” Gandhi added.
