US Fed Policy: The US Federal Reserve in its latest meeting kept interest rates steady at 3.50% – 3.75% and indicated that there could be only one cut in 2026. This “Hawkish” stance strengthened the dollar and lost the luster of gold.

Middle East tensions and oil: Crude oil prices remain above $100 due to the Iran-Israel conflict, causing uncertainty in global markets and investors rushing towards the dollar as a safe haven.

Profit Booking: After gold reached a record high in early March, big investors are now booking their profits, which has led to increased selling in the market.
