Experts on Gold & Silver Outlook
Commenting on the gold outlook Jateen Trivedi, VP Research Analyst – Commodity and Currency, LKP Securities said that Gold traded in a flat to range-bound manner as market participants awaited the outcome of the Federal Reserve’s meeting tonight, with expectations leaning toward a 0.25% rate cut. Additionally, investors anticipate a statement hinting at potential further rate reductions. After yesterday’s significant selloff of over Rs 1,800, dropping from Rs 78,500 to Rs 76,700, gold may find some short-term relief if the Fed’s announcement aligns with projections.
Trivedi also added the upside could be limited, with major resistance set at Rs 77,500. The short-term outlook remains cautious, as the expected 0.25% rate cut is not likely to spark a substantial rally, given that it had already been projected in previous Fed communications.
Why is gold a safe haven investment?
Gold is widely seen as a safe-haven investment, offering protection against monetary expansion and helping preserve currency value. When central banks increase the money supply, gold acts as a hedge against currency devaluation, making it a dependable asset during economic uncertainty.

Gold’s resilience to inflation further strengthens its appeal. As living costs rise, gold’s value often increases, shielding investors from inflationary pressures. In economic downturns, gold generally outperforms other assets, protecting portfolios from devaluation and providing a buffer against financial instability.
