What to watch for next

According to Akshat Siddhant, Lead Quant Analyst at Mudrex, the decline in crude oil prices has somewhat eased concerns regarding inflation, and the market is now focused on upcoming inflation data from the United States. The global oil benchmark, Brent crude, has slipped below $90 per barrel—a softening driven by hopes that the conflict between the U.S. and Iran might come to an end. This development will provide insights into the U.S. Federal Reserve’s stance on interest rates and the trajectory of the U.S. dollar—both of which are critical factors influencing the movement of gold prices. In India, the price trend will also be shaped by the rupee's performance against the dollar, international market rates, and local demand.
