What Did Fed Chairman Say?
Jain noted that after the Fed Chairman’s speech, which hinted that the US job market and inflation have not shown significant improvement post the September policy meeting, markets rebounded from the day’s low.
The Fed Chief also expressed concern over the prolonged US shutdown, though he mentioned that overall growth could be better than expected. These remarks led to a renewed interest in buying precious metals.
“Gold prices are sustaining above $4,100 per troy ounce and silver has closed above $50, signalling potential for further upside in the coming sessions,” said Jain. He added that global uncertainty and safe-haven buying continue to support the bullish tone for both metals.
