Gold Prices Drop on Weak Global CuesGold Silver Reports — Gold Prices Drop on Weak Global Cues, Low Demand — Gold prices fell by Rs50 to Rs30,850 per 10 gram at the bullion market on Saturday on weak cues from overseas markets and fall in demand from local jewellers at domestic spot market. Silver followed suit and eased by Rs200 to Rs41,400 per kg due to reduced offtake by industrial units and coin makers.

Traders said a weak trend overseas, shrugging off North Korea’s latest missile launch over Japan with strong US inflation data raising hopes of another interest rate hike, mainly kept gold prices lower. Besides, fading demand from local jewellers and retailers at domestic spot markets due to ongoing inauspicious fortnight of “Sharadh”, too weighed on the prices, they added.

Globally, gold prices fell 0.74% to $1,319.20 an ounce and silver by 1.27% to $17.54 an ounce in New York in Friday’s trade.
