The price dip was attributed to profit-taking activity amid a rebound in the dollar index and geopolitical concerns following U.S. President-elect Donald Trump’s tariff threats targeting BRICS nations. Additionally, weakness in crude oil prices weighed on gold and silver. However, looming economic uncertainties, such as France’s rising budget crisis, heavy sell-offs in government bonds, and escalating debt burdens in several global economies, continue to provide longer-term support for precious metals. The ongoing Russia-Ukraine war escalation further bolsters the safe-haven appeal of gold and silver.
Market Outlook
Manoj Kumar Jain, Director of Prithvi Finmart, anticipates volatility in gold and silver prices this week due to fluctuations in the dollar index, speeches by the Federal Reserve Chair, and U.S. monthly job reports. He expects gold and silver to hold key support levels of $2,588 and $29.88 per troy ounce, respectively, on a weekly closing basis.
Key Levels to Watch
Gold: Support at $2,654–$2,638, resistance at $2,674–$2,688 per troy ounce.
Silver: Support at $30.60–$30.35, resistance at $31.10–$31.40 per troy ounce.
On MCX, gold has support at ₹76,440–₹76,200 and resistance at ₹76,950–₹77,220. Silver’s support is pegged at ₹90,250–₹89,600, with resistance at ₹91,500–₹92,200.
Trading Strategy
Jain suggests buying gold on dips around ₹76,500 with a stop loss at ₹76,240 for a target of ₹77,000. Similarly, he recommends buying silver on dips around ₹90,250 with a stop loss at ₹89,600 for a target of ₹91,500.
As markets digest key economic data and geopolitical developments, traders can expect continued price swings in gold and silver this week.
