Gold prices have been under pressure ever since the dollar started onwards on its hike

Gold prices have been under pressure ever since the dollar started onwards on its hike. The yellow metal has been noting a drop in prices as the US Federal Reserve stood firm on its aggressive stance to curb inflation. The Fed has hiked the interest rates often, leading to the gold prices dropping since the bullion is a non-yielding asset.

In India, demand surges due to the festive season and upcoming wedding season helped gold prices regain some ground. However, investors remain cautious of global events and decisions, with an eye out for the US inflation data, which will affect the Fed’s response regarding the interest rate hike.
