Gold Price Outlook This Week: Gold and Silver Rates Expected to Remain Volatile
Gold and silver prices are expected to remain volatile this week due to fluctuations in the dollar index and Russia-Ukraine deal. "We expect gold and silver prices to remain volatile this week amid volatility in the dollar index and Russia-Ukraine peace deal hopes; gold prices could hold their support level of $3,120 per troy ounce and silver prices could also hold $31.40 per troy ounce levels," said Manoj Kumar Jain of Prithvifinmart Commodity Research.
"The Russia-Ukraine peace deal hopes amid the U.S. President's efforts to finalise the ceasefire deal between both nations could limit gains of gold and silver," said the expert.
