Why are gold and silver prices falling?

On the other hand, experts believe that the market is closely monitoring the developments to the US-Iran nuclear deal negotiations. In such a situation, the next step of these two countries can affect the direction of precious metals (gold and silver). It is being said that there may be huge fluctuations in the prices of gold and silver at present.

Akshat Garg, head of research and product at Choice Wealth, told The Times of India that the fall in silver has happened mainly because it had risen very rapidly in a short period of time. Gold futures opened on a weak note, but later in the day it erased all its losses and traded at Rs 1,53,047 for 10 grams on MCX, higher by Rs 976 or 0.64 per cent.

Experts who have minute knowledge about gold and silver say that investment in gold and silver can be done from a long term perspective. If desired, long term investors can gradually purchase gold and silver.
