Understanding the Price Movement
In the UAE, the gold market is on a growth pace by 7% per month, as the 22K and 24K gold take the highest rates in October. Analysts attribute this surge to a new sum of worldwide geo political tensions, a change of interest rates by the US and the inflationary pressures. Furthermore, the gold market which is tax-free also renders Dubai a good destination to purchasers in the local market and international tourists alike.
This growth is also in line with the trend in the world market, where gold prices go up when the investors want to get safety in times of economic turmoil. Also, the future festive holidays such as Diwali, Eid and UAE national day should further increase the retail demand of jewelry.
