What Experts Are Saying
Market participants remain cautious amid evolving geopolitical and economic signals. Analysts believe gold may trade within a narrow range in the near term. According to PTI, LKP Securities expert Jatin Trivedi said that investors are exercising caution due to developments related to the ceasefire and potential weekend news, which prevented significant moves in gold.
On the other hand, according to Harish V of Geojit Investments, a weakening dollar and easing geopolitical tensions provided some support to gold. In particular, expectations of a potential agreement between the US and Iran have eased market concerns, which could also ease inflationary pressures.
