📊 Why Are Gold & Silver Prices Falling?
The decline in gold and silver prices is attributed to:
✔ Weak global cues leading to a price correction in the bullion market.

✔ Strengthening of the US dollar, reducing gold’s appeal as a safe-haven asset.
Gold prices often fluctuate based on global economic conditions, inflation trends, and central bank policies. Despite this temporary fall, gold remains a long-term investment option for those seeking stability.
