Market Outlook for Gold and Silver Prices
Analysts at ICICI Direct Research stated that “Spot Gold is likely to trade with a positive bias amid a rise in demand for safe haven as US President Donald Trump on the weekend ordered widespread tariffs on goods from Mexico, Canada, and China, triggering a trade war that could dent global economic growth and reignite inflation. The US imposed 25% tariffs on Mexican and most Canadian imports and 10% on goods from China, starting Tuesday. In retaliation, Canada said it would impose 25% tariffs against $155 billion worth of US goods. Mexico also vowed retaliatory tariffs, whereas China said it would challenge this move at the WTO and take countermeasures. Meanwhile, the strong dollar and rise in US Treasury yields may cap sharp upside in prices. Spot gold is likely to rise further towards the $2820 level as long as it trades above the $2770 level. Similarly, the spot silver is likely to rise further towards the $31.80 level as long as it holds the support near $30.70.”
