Why Are Gold Rates Falling Today?
Several global economic developments and domestic market factors are influencing gold prices on November 12, 2026. Here are five key reasons behind the movement:
Domestic Factors
Rupee Depreciation: A weaker Indian rupee makes imported gold more expensive for domestic buyers. Since India depends heavily on gold imports, currency fluctuations directly affect the landed cost and retail prices of the precious metal.
Wedding and Festive Demand: India's wedding season continues to support domestic gold purchases. Jewellery demand provides some support to local prices, even when international rates decline, helping cushion the impact of global market fluctuations.
Global Factors
US Inflation and Federal Reserve Expectations: Strong US inflation data has increased expectations of tighter monetary policy. Higher interest rates make gold less attractive because it does not offer interest income like bonds or other interest-bearing investments.
Stronger US Dollar: Gold is traded internationally in US dollars. When the dollar strengthens, gold becomes more expensive for buyers using other currencies. This can reduce international demand and put downward pressure on bullion prices.
Crude Oil Prices: Rising crude oil prices, with Brent crude hovering near $93 per barrel, are keeping inflation concerns alive. Higher energy costs can influence central bank decisions and increase expectations of interest rate hikes.
