The Indian Opinion
The usual narrative of gold as a safe-haven asset is being tested by its recent volatility. While a small daily dip may not alarm long-term investors, the consistent price swings reveal a market reacting to global cues and domestic demand. Calls for immediate buying or selling are often exaggerated. A better measure is the trend over weeks, not days. Will wedding season demand shore up prices next month, or will global rate hikes cap any rally? That is the real question for the prudent buyer.
