Effect of dollar index and bond yield on price
Gold and silver prices react inversely to the US dollar index and bond yields. If the dollar index increases, there will be pressure on the price and if the index decreases, the price of gold and silver increases. American personal consumption expenditure grew by 2.6% on an annual basis in November, which was 2.9% in October. This was lower than expected, which raises the argument that the Federal Reserve will not raise interest rates any further. This will support the price of gold and silver.
Which factors will affect gold and silver in 2024?
Motilal Oswal said in his report that gold will become costlier by 13-15% in the year 2023. Talking about the outlook for 2024, factors like monetary policy, fluctuations in dollar index and bond yields will be important. If the Fed does not cut interest rates as per market expectations, there will be pressure on prices. On the other hand, geopolitical situation, weakness in dollar index, interest rate cut and pressure on growth rate will support the demand for gold and silver and there will be a rise in the prices.
