THE SAFE-HAVEN GOLD is expected to keep shining in 2025, but faces a two-way risk that could dim its sheen.
An easing interest rate cycle and ongoing geopolitical tensions could aid the precious metal's rally to even ₹90,000 levels, but if central banks turn hawkish or geopolitical fears ease, investors may move to riskier assets.
Gold delivered 20.6% returns in 2024, closing at ₹75,746 per 10 grams in the futures trade on the Multi Commodity Exchange of India (MCX).
The price has tapered slightly from its peak of ₹79,362 after uncertainties surrounding the US presidential election outcome have subsided.
Prices in the international market have also come down with the spot gold on COMEX hovering around $2,624.50 per ounce, down from $2,801.8 per ounce in October.
