With such an impressive start to the year, it is possible that gold could trade within a relatively narrow range in the latter half of 2025. On the other hand, the macroeconomic environment remains highly unpredictable, which may underpin further gains for gold. Any material deterioration in global economic or geopolitical conditions could further amplify gold's safe-haven appeal, potentially pushing prices higher still, she added.
On Wednesday, the U.S. Federal Reserve left interest rates unchanged as widely excepted but Powell said it was too soon to say whether the Fed would cut rates at its next meeting in September. Gold tends to perform well in a low-interest-rate environment.
Live Events
Global gold demand, including over-the-counter (OTC), trading rose by 3 per cent year-on-year to 1,248.8 metric tons in the second quarter of 2025 as investment jumped 78 per cent, the World Gold Council said on Thursday.
Focus now shifts to U.S. core PCE index data due later in the day, followed by U.S. non-farm payrolls on Friday for more cues on Fed rate path.
Elsewhere, spot silver was down 0.5 per cent at $36.95 per ounce, platinum rose 0.4 per cent to $1,318.20, and palladium gained about 1 per cent to $1,216.27.

US Dollar experienced heightened volatility; DXY declined over 4% on US tariff announcement
The US Dollar experienced heightened volatility, as per SEBI annual report for 2024-25. The Dollar index peaked at a two-year high in January 2025, before declining by over four per cent during February-March 2025 following the announcement of US tariffs. The INR/USD rate traded within the range of '83-84 during the first half of 2024-25, before showing a depreciating trend, particularly in February 2025, driven by broad-based dollar strength and significant FPI outflows from Indian markets. During 2024-25, the foreign exchange market faced significant turbulence, with major currency pairs undergoing heightened volatility and rapid fluctuations, the exchange board noted. Central banks policy actions along with rising geopolitical tensions and trade conflicts, impacted both business operations and the economic outlook. While US dollar and various other currencies showed intermittent periods of strength, weaknesses emerged in the latter half of the year due to adverse global economic and trade war situation. At the end of 2024-25, Indian Rupee depreciated by 2.5 per cent to close at 85.5 against USD after touching its historic low of 87.4 on February 05, 2025. Among other currencies, Russian Rouble appreciated the highest by 10.3 per cent over USD, followed by South African Rand (3.3 per cent), British Pound (2.3 per cent), Japanese Yen (0.9 per cent) and Euro (0.2 per cent). On the other hand, along with Indian Rupee, Brazilian Real and Chinese Renminbi depreciated 13.7 per cent and 0.5 per cent respectively during the year, SEBI noted.

Trading Strategy: Here's how you should trade Silver today; details
Silver: Up on a weaker Dollar, healthy risk appetite Performance On August 12, spot silver swung between $37.50 and $38.03. The gray metal recovered on a weaker Dollar as the US President Trump said that he may allow a lawsuit against the Fed Chair Powell over the Fed headquarters' renovations. The US Dollar extended its decline on the BLS nominee EJ Antoni suggesting suspension of the monthly jobs data in an interview conducted before his nomination. At the time of writing this article, spot silver was trading at $37.94, up nearly 0.90 per cent for the day. The MCX September silver contract at Rs 113,779 was up 0.43 per cent. Data roundup The much-awaited US CPI report (July) released on August 12 was not very comforting. Headline CPI rose 0.2 per cent m-o-m (forecast 0.2 per cent) and 2.7 per cent (forecast 2.8 per cent). However, core CPI, fuelled by services prices, climbed 3.1 per cent (forecast 3 per cent), fastest pace since February and the most in the last three years. Goods prices, excluding food and energy commodities, were contained. Core CPI accelerated to 0.3 per cent on m-o-m basis, faster than the estimated pace of 0.2 per cent increase. Shelter prices rose 0.2 per cent for a second month. Supercore services climbed 0.5 per cent--fastest pace since January. Despite elevated inflation readings, odds of a 25-bps cut in the September FOMC meeting stand above 90 per cent, though rate cuts beyond that look less certain. Trade and tariffs On August 12, the US President Trump defended his tariff strategy as he said that trillions of Dollars are being taken in tariffs, which has been incredible for stocks and economy. He further said that consumers are not even paying tariffs. Stephen Miran, the head of the Council of National Economic Advisors, said that tariffs will be borne by foreign companies and there is no evidence of tariffs in inflation. US Dollar Index and yields At the time of writing this article, the US Dollar Index was hovering around 98, down nearly 0.5 per cent for the day. Ten-year US yields recovered on Trump threatening Powell with lawsuit and were steady at 4.29 per cent, while 30-year yields at 4.88 per cent were up by 0.60 per cent. Upcoming data PPI (July) will be released on August 14, while August 15, a national holiday in India, is packed with crucial data like retail sales (July), industrial production (July), University of Michigan sentiment and inflation expectations (August prel.) along with import and export price indices (July). Apart from data, as rate cut expectations grow despite high inflation, focus will be on Fed speakers, too. Silver ETF and COMEX Inventory Total known global silver ETF holdings stood at 787.915 MOz, up 9.91 per cent YTD and at a 3-year high. COMEX silver inventory, currently at 506.44 MOz continues to hover around record-high level. Perth Mint's silver sales: Perth Mint's July silver sales slumped to a six-month low. CFTC As per CFTC data, hedge fund managers cut their net-long positions by 13,012 lots to 30,621 lots, the least bullish in eleven weeks. Silver Outlook Healthy risk appetite on US-China trade truce extension and surging risk assets would continue to support the metal into the dips. A weakening US Dollar, subdued yields, rate cut expectations and strong ETF interest also support the grey metal. As long as risk appetite is healthy, Buying the dips with a tight stoploss is the favoured strategy.
