What’s Driving the Rise in Gold and Silver Prices in June 2025?

Several global and domestic factors are contributing to the current rise in bullion prices:

 1. Global Inflation and Economic Uncertainty

• Central banks around the world are either pausing or reversing interest rate hikes, increasing the appeal of non-yielding assets like gold.

• Recession fears and sluggish economic recovery continue to boost safe-haven demand.

 2. Weakening of the US Dollar

• A softer dollar generally pushes international investors toward gold and silver, as they become cheaper in other currencies.

3. Geopolitical Tensions

• Ongoing Middle East conflicts, especially involving Israel and Iran, are increasing market volatility.

• Investors are hedging their bets against rising tensions by parking money in precious metals.

 4. Domestic Demand Ahead of Festival Season

• With the Indian festival and wedding season approaching, demand for gold jewelry is rising.

• Even rural markets are reporting an increase in bullion purchases as investment and gifting options.

 Should You Buy Gold or Silver Now?

Analysts remain cautiously optimistic. If you’re investing for the long term, buying in small quantities during price dips could be beneficial. However, for jewelry purposes, today’s high prices may warrant waiting.

Expert Tip:
Look for BIS-certified gold with a clear hallmark. Buy from reputed retailers and avoid unverified online deals.
