Market experts believe that volatility may continue in gold and silver prices for now: The US central bank, the Federal Reserve, has raised interest rates for the first time in three years. This has led to a fall in gold prices. However, gold may receive support from geopolitical tensions and economic uncertainty, prompting investors to choose it again as a safe investment. Experts believe that investors should remain cautious because the market is still showing signs of weakness, but any major decline could also create a buying opportunity.
