Gold and silver prices are declining due to rising U.S. inflation and India's new import tariffs raising duties on gold and silver from 6% to 15%. This tariff hike has led to reduced imports and profit-taking by Indian investors, which may lower demand and put downward pressure on global prices. Meanwhile, U.S. inflation remains above the Fed's target, shifting market expectations toward a rate hike in 2026. Central bank gold buying is expected to increase, supporting some demand amid geopolitical uncertainty.
