Reasons for the rise in rates
The recent increase in gold rates in Hyderabad and other parts of the world can be attributed to various factors. The primary reason is the interest rate cut by the Federal Reserve, which has led to increased demand for the zero-yield bullion.
There is an expectation that the Fed will reduce rates further by at least 25 basis points in November.
As gold rates in Hyderabad and other Indian cities have surged, the demand for the yellow metal may decline in the domestic market.
Future trends in gold rates will largely depend on several factors, including the Federal Reserve’s decisions and the geopolitical situation in the Middle East.
