🔍 Why did the price of gold decrease? 3 main reasons

Although the local market is the decision behind the decline in gold prices, three important factors in the international market have played a role:


1. Local market impact: Decline in the price of acidic gold

The price of gold in the domestic market is determined by Bajus. According to their latest announcement, the price of acidic gold (Pure Gold) in the international market has decreased slightly. Due to this decline in the price of acidic gold, an adjustment of ৳1,050 per baht has been made in the domestic market as well.


2. Increased risk-taking in the international market

When investors in the global economy move away from safe or "safe-haven" assets (such as gold) and become interested in the stock market or other risky but high-profit investments, the price of gold decreases.


Rise in the stock market: Recently, there has been a major rise in various stock markets in Asia and Europe, which has encouraged investors to buy risky stocks.


Profit taking: After the price increases, many international investors sell gold to take profits, which results in a decrease in the price.


3. Caution around the US Federal Reserve meeting

The US central bank, the Federal Reserve, has an important meeting next week. Investors are waiting to see whether interest rates will be cut in this meeting.


According to market analysts, the probability of interest rate cuts is about 89%. When interest rates are reduced, the dollar usually weakens and gold prices increase.


But just before this meeting, investors have taken an extremely cautious stance. This caution has also created instability in the gold market.


💍 Advice for buyers: Is now the time to buy?


This change in gold prices is a relief for those who were planning to buy jewelry for weddings or other occasions.


According to experts, the instability in the international market has not yet completely subsided. However, the current price drop has created an opportunity for buyers in the short term. Those who want to buy jewelry quickly can buy at this price.


This fluctuation in gold prices will continue. Therefore, it is wise to look at the international and local market trends before making investment decisions.
