Fed Reserve likely to cut rates
Recently, gold prices have seen a good rally in the domestic and international markets, driven mainly by optimism about the US Fed’s rate cut and tensions in the Middle East. Let us tell you, that the US Fed started cutting benchmark rates by 50 bps (0.50%) on September 12. The central bank is expected to cut rates by another 75-100 bps this year. Gold prices are being affected by rising tensions in the Middle East following Israeli attacks on Iran-backed forces. Israel killed Hezbollah leader Sayyed Hassan Nasrallah in Beirut and has increased attacks in the region.
Positive triggers for prices
According to a Reuters report, Israel’s increasing attacks against Hezbollah in Lebanon and the Houthis in Yemen have raised fears that the fighting in the Middle East could get out of control and involve Iran and the United States. Geopolitical tensions, economic uncertainty, and interest rate cuts are positive triggers for gold prices.
