Gold and Silver Price Predictions: Gold and silver prices are continuously setting new records in the country and the world and their shine is becoming brighter day by day amid geopolitical tensions. In such an environment, the question in the mind of every investor and common man is whether this is the right time to buy gold and silver or should we wait. The current situation is that 10 grams i.e. one tola of gold has crossed Rs 1.5 lakh and the price of gold has reached a new all-time high of Rs 1,53,831 per 10 grams. At the same time, silver has also broken all the old records and touched the level of Rs 3,26,487 per kg, that is, silver has now become costlier by more than Rs 3 lakh per kg.
If we talk about returns directly, gold and silver have surprised investors. According to statistics, a person who had bought 10 grams of gold exactly a year ago has got a profit of up to 80 percent today. While it takes 7 to 8 years for the money in bank FD to double, gold and silver have given such returns in just one year, which even big stocks could not give. This is the reason why investors are increasingly moving towards precious metals.
What are the reasons for the price rise?
Many big international reasons are being said behind this tremendous rise in prices. The most important reason is the Greenland crisis and the geopolitical tension related to it, which has created an environment of uncertainty at the global level. Whenever the fear of war or major conflict increases, investors move money away from risky investments like the stock market and turn to safer options like gold. This is called safe haven demand, which has provided strong support to gold prices.
Apart from this, the weakening of the US dollar and the decline in Japanese government bonds have also played an important role in increasing the shine of gold. When currencies and bonds weaken, investors consider it safer to invest money in gold. At the same time, fears of tax and possible trade war between America and Europe have also created an atmosphere of fear in the market. Instead of taking risks, big institutional investors are increasing investment in gold, due to which the demand remains high.
Buy or Wait?
Talking about silver, its growth seems to be faster than gold. A major reason for this is industrial demand. Silver is required heavily in modern sectors like solar panels, electric vehicles and AI servers. Demand is increasing rapidly, but supply is limited, due to which silver prices are rising like a rocket.
Regarding the future trend, experts believe that if global tension and uncertainty continues then this rise in gold and silver may continue for some more time. There is also discussion in the market that the price of silver can go up to Rs 3.5 to 4 lakh per kg, while the price of gold can also touch higher levels. However, experts are also warning that if the situation improves or there is a change in interest rates, then a sharp correction or fall in prices may also be seen.
In such a situation, the biggest question for common investors is whether to buy or wait. Experts advise that families who want to buy gold and silver for marriage or any important need, should do so in a phased manner as per their need. At the same time, instead of investing huge amount at once, investors are being advised to invest slowly and thoughtfully, so that the risk of price fluctuations can be reduced.
