Market experts attribute the fluctuations in precious metals to a combination of global factors, including uncertainty in international financial markets, expectations around interest rate changes in the US, and fluctuations in the US dollar index.
Additionally, geopolitical tensions and inflation concerns continue to support safe-haven demand for gold, although profit-booking at higher levels has occasionally capped sharp gains.
On the domestic front, demand from jewellery buyers and seasonal purchasing activity continue to influence retail pricing.
Experts suggest that prices may remain volatile in the short term as traders respond to global cues and central bank policy signals.
Overall, the bullion market remains sensitive to global developments, and both gold and silver are expected to witness continued price swings in the coming days as investors balance risk and safe-haven demand.
