Why Are Gold and Silver Prices Falling?
Gold and silver prices dropped in the global market because:
- The US dollar became stronger.
- Investors booked profits after recent gains.
- Spot gold fell 0.4% to $5,020.10 per ounce.
- US gold futures for April delivery decreased 0.1% to $5,039.50 per ounce.
- Spot silver dropped 0.6% to $76.92 per ounce.
US inflation came out cooler than expected, which may lead to interest rate cuts by the Federal Reserve. Lower rates usually help gold and silver, but the strong dollar makes bullion more expensive for other currencies.
