Gold rate today: The past seven days have been tough for gold investors as the price of gold has kept falling. Investors had hoped for a bullish momentum in the yellow metal. Many are still hoping to see a rise on Friday. However, those planning to buy gold for Chhath Puja are happy that the price has dropped.
Gold prices in India went down because international gold prices dropped. This happened as investors felt less worried and took some profits. Experts say that if the US Federal Reserve cuts interest rates or if the US government shutdown continues, it could make investors cautious and push gold prices up.
