According to Pritam Patnaik, Head of Commodities, HNI and NRI Acquisitions at Axis Securities. The US Federal Reserve’s overtly hawkish outlook and a surging dollar index. Which is currently at a new high of 113.567. The main reasons why gold prices have breached and are still trading below the psychological level of $1650.

The fact that central banks throughout the world are willing to forgo growth. In order to control inflation has undoubtedly opened the way for a higher interest rate environment, which is bad news for gold prices that don’t pay interest. Fears of a recession have boosted the dollar’s appeal as a safe haven and driven it higher. For gold, the suffering will persist in the near future.
