Key factors driving gold rates in Hyderabad, other cities

The surge in gold rates in Hyderabad and other cities can be attributed to several global and domestic factors:

  • US Federal Reserve’s Rate Cuts: A recent 50-basis-point cut by the US Federal Reserve has fueled a positive market sentiment, causing gold prices to rise. Expectations of more rate cuts until 2026 have further strengthened gold as an attractive investment.
  • Geopolitical Tensions: Escalating tensions in the Middle East, combined with the ongoing Russia-Ukraine conflict, are pushing investors to flock to gold, considered a safe-haven asset during uncertain times. These geopolitical concerns have played a major role in the ongoing rise in gold rates.

Impact on domestic gold demand

With gold prices reaching record highs, there are concerns about a potential decline in domestic demand, particularly with the festive season approaching.

High gold prices may deter buyers from purchasing gold, traditionally seen as a must-have during festivals and weddings.

The future of gold rates in Hyderabad and globally will largely depend on factors such as decisions by the US Federal Reserve and geopolitical developments. Any significant changes in these areas could lead to further fluctuations in the market.
