Data taken based on market rates from bullion dealers and public market sources.

An expert says, the gold and silver will come back to the rally, as a Fed rate cut may support the gold and silver prices as they become more attractive than interest-earning assets.

However, there will be short-term uncertainties, and we have not confirmed how many cuts there will be or when they will be done.

Another main reason that will support gold and silver is geopolitical risk; ongoing US action in Venezuela and rising global tension, including in East Asia, continue to support bullion prices. Gold and silver ended slightly below, but this abnormal price increase achievement made history with a positive outlook ahead.
